I have passed LPIC Level 1
|

| Hi all,
After I have passed LPI 101 last month, I passed LPI 102 last week. It is not an easy game, and you must pay more attention in networking issues. The book I have used in this exam is:
LPI General Linux II: Exam 102 Exam Cram.
It is worth to study, but it doesn't cover everything in the exam. I also study with RHCE Study Guide by Sybex, I have found that there is some topics related to LPI 102 Exam. Moreover, I studied a lot of HOW-TO document, e.g. Kernel How-to, Networking How-to, etc. and use exam note in this site.
I suggest to download the exam objective from LPI and study guilded by it. Don't try to find one book which cover all materials for this exam, because I have tried, but I failed.
In my exam, there are total 63 questions in 90 minutes. The distribution is listed as follows:
20-25 questions about networking, the command like route, netstat, ping, nslookup, etc.
8-10 questions about RPM & dkpg, you need to know the meaing of each option & switch. (please don't just remember -i, -e, etc, you need to know --install, --setudgids, etc.)
5-7 questions about kernal, you need to know lilo, make, Makefile, etc.
5-8 questions about X. The XF86Config file is the most important you should know.
2-3 questions about printing. lpr, lprm, lpc command should be known.
5-6 questions about Apache, DNS, FTP, sendmail, NFS server. Remind yourself about the deamon and configure file of each server
2-3 questions about VI editors. Please make sure you know each standard command (e.g. :q, :w, O, a, i, etc)
That's all. Good luck!
P.S.: If anyone want to know more about LPI 101 exam, please let me know. I will post my experience of this exam to you. | |

| Congrats!
What is the passmark for 101 and 102 and what are number of questions for 101? Also, any info on LPI 101 would be great as I am writing it tomorrow!
Thanks! | |

| congrats on the pass.
Are you plan to go for LPIC-L2?
Frankly speaking, the commands being tested in LPIC-L1 is seldom used. I almost forgot how to use those commands after I passed the test.
Hope that this will not happen in LPIC-L2!
