    Software.  Just some type of certificate of completion
    or achievement.  I am looking for something that isn't
    as gnarly as an A+ cert.  But still will state that the
    holder of said cert has successfully built a linux box
    and was able to do some CLI stuff.  And show someone
    else how to do the build.  or something like that.  <:

I didn't think the Linux+ was as gnarly as the A+, but then
I probably have more real time spent fiddling (read:
fighting) with bash than with building servers or tweaking
MS Windows desktop settings or whatever it is the A+ tests
for these days.  In any case I passed Linux+ pretty easily
as merely an active user of Linux who spent a few hours
boning up with a self-study book, but without any
professional experience.  So that may be something useful to
you.  On the other hand, I'd sure like to find where there's
a job here in abq that actually would care that I know
something about Linux, though.
