Two month does not seem unreasonable.
First, you need some experience with FrontPage98.
Get it and play with it for a week.
Get a MCSD FrontPage98 study guide. I got this book and it's great for the exam preparation. DonÔÇÖt forget to use exercises in the book to get hands-on experience.
You can find a link to it at
http://www.examnotes.net/BOOKS_SB.shtml Get Transcenders practice exam for FrontPage. It's really good, and includes simulations, just like the real exam.
Read some braindumps. There are not many braindumps for FrontPage or SiteServer.
Check this site:
http://www.thaimoong.com/mcse/70-055.cfm As far as the other exam, depending on your preferences, you can take VisualInterDev or SiteServer commerce edition exam.
If you into programming, choose site VisualInterDev, if not go with Site Server.
The Site server exam has a low passing score, so it's a plus.
You can download a site server free from Microsoft site.
You need to first download the Site Server 3.0, and then Site Server commerce on top of that.
http://www.microsoft.com/siteserver/site/ProductInfo/Evaluation.htm http://www.microsoft.com/siteserver/commerce/ProductInfo/Evaluation.htm I just checked, for some reason Microsoft says that those evaluation editions will be available soon. That's funny because I've downloaded both of them last year.
There are no study guides as far as I know at this time for the Site server commerce exam.
I picked some good books for this exam. Check them at
http://www.examnotes.net/BOOKS_SB.shtml I would recommend "Personalization and membership"
Also, read the deployment guide on Microsoft's web site.
