Default What are they looking for on the exam?

Are there any resources that better explain what to expect on the exam?

I'm reading through the self study kit for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 Fundamentals Course 3071 and I'm not sure if some of the examples are simply examples or information that I need to know/memorize.

The text listed below is from the course. Am I to know/memorize basically what SuSEconfig is/does or will I need to know for example that SYSLOGD_PARAMS=“” is in the /etc/sysconfig/syslog file, SMTPD_LISTEN_REMOTE=“no” is in /etc/sysconfig/mail and if SYSLOGD_PARAMS is set to “-r,” the daemon that logs system messages is directed to listen on port 514 for system messages from other hosts?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.


SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 Fundamentals Course 3071
---------------------------------------------------------
SuSEconfig is a tool used in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server to configure the system according to the variables that are set in the various files in /etc/sysconfig/ and its subdirectories.

These files contain variables such as SYSLOGD_PARAMS=“” in /etc/sysconfig/syslog and SMTPD_LISTEN_REMOTE=“no” in /etc/sysconfig/mail.

Some of these variables are used directly (such as in some start scripts). For example, if SYSLOGD_PARAMS is set to “-r,” the daemon that logs system messages is directed to listen on port 514 for system messages from other hosts.

Other variables are used to modify other files. For example, if
SMTPD_LISTEN_REMOTE is set to “yes,” the variable INET_INTERFACES in
/etc/postfix/main.cf is set to “all” by the script /sbin/SuSEconfig and the scripts in /sbin/conf.d/.
