    - OT: Certifications... Worth it? Here is a good article by Jennifer Waters concerning the question that circulates these newsgroups. Are certifications worth it? http://blogs.technet.com/canitpro/archive/2007/03/26/guest-blogger-does-certification-matter-really-any-more.aspx Michael D. Alligood, MCSA, MCDST The I.T.

    - I am leaving this newsgroup for the next several minutes. Don't try to stop me, my mind is made up. I am leaving this heretic- infested hellhole because my pure mind can no longer stand the proximity to stupidity that it endures when I come here. I will be gone for at least several minutes. Thank you to all those who have always had an uplifting word; I am sorry to let you down. It's just that I've come to a place in my walk right now where I can't deal with this constant struggle to be polite in the face of idiots. I need some rebuilding time. I cannot imagine being ready to read more stupidity for at least three minutes, and probably several more than that. Pleading emails will not cause me to change my mind; I will be a mere memory in this place for several minutes, and absolutely no amount of fawning and obsequiousness can change that. Feel free to try, though; I can't get enough of all that fawning. Tag: OT: New address Tag: 213458

    - My resignation from the MCNGP Hello fair citizens, I hereby tender my resignation from the MCNGP with heavy heart, as it no longer aligns with my long term, personal goals. On numerous attempts to join the Justice League, I have been refused due to my affiliation with the MCNGP. In addition, not one of the MCNGP have helped me with my personal goals and they are mean. In order to be a Justice League member, I cannot be mean and evil or be associated with said mean and evil persons. Please be sure to wish me well on my endeavors and my personal success in the Justice League. Very truly yours, Batman Tag: OT: New address Tag: 213360

It seems that MCSE will be replaced by MCTS this year. Looking into this scenario, I'm wondering if I should go on and finish my MCSE certification or wait for the MCTS.

    - My resignation from the MCNGP - Lasher #50 To whom it may concern, Today, I have decided that it is within my best interests as a professional to withdraw my membership from the MCNGP and resign. The reasons are many and some of which I will list: 1. Failure of MCNGP's to "stand by their fellow MCNGP's". Now, I was never expecting everyone to agree 100% of the time, but particular member's lack of professionalism in this matter is shocking. 2. "Belittling others..." - I'm tired of this. I started of in the NG's helping people after I had difficulty in the MCDST NG. What is going on here is simply no longer worth my time and the opinions of people here are not getting heard in a way that would be taken professionally. I would rather seek out better methods of deferring the usage of braindumps. Honestly those two sum it up, in general. It is my opinion that if you hold so much disdain for Microsoft or disagree with their testing procedures, you should do something more than sit around and complain amongst yourselves. There are are proper channels and other, more accredited, forums that you could be a part of. The MCNGP is, again in my opinion, not one of them. It is my opinion that that the MCNGP has not done what it could do to properly influence the Microsoft Learning team. In closing, I do apologize to all of the people that I have offended either passively or aggressively, out of hate or out of general disdain for your behavior. Some of which I would like to list: lowdes, MDA, and countless others. However, I do not apologize to those who have used braindumps, inquired to the usage of braindumps, or have promoted braindumps. I wish you all the best and good luck with your endeavors to bash as many people possible. -- Lasher Tag: OT: New address Tag: 213161

    - MCP Live Meeting: Your Next Step in Windows Server Certifications: Here is the Q&A on the Longhorn Certification webcast, morning edition. (MCP Live Meeting: Your Next Step in Windows Server Certifications - Worldwide (Session 1)) Undoubtedly it will answer some of the questions people will be posting here (or have posted). I may have missed a couple of questions because I joined the webcast late. If anyone can post the evening edition (5pm PDT) Q&A, or have the earlier questions [if any], I would appreciate it. One interesting announcement on the webcast was the announcement that the Windows 2000 Server exams will all retire on March 30, 2008. This includes exams 70-210, 214 to 223, 226, 232, 244, 292, and 296. If you don't upgrade your 2000 certification to 2003 by next March, you have to start over with the 2003 exams. Another announcement was that the Longhorn Beta exams will first be offered at TechEd in Orlando, after which, only if they need more beta takers, will it be offered to the public. Also listed were the latest cert numbers: MCSE2003: 68,668, MCSA2003: 105,178; MCSE2000: 236,736; MCSA2000: 144,068. Enjoy: Question: Well I thought once I compelte 70-292 with a MCSE in 2000 makes me an MCSA in 2003 which would qualify for the upgrade me to Longhorn. Please correct me if I am wrong . Answer: IF you are MCSE 2000, you need 292 AND 296 to earn MCSE 2003. If you are MCSE and take only 292, you will not earn anything. MCSA 2000 can take 292 to upgrade to 2003. Does that help? Question: Incorrect, If you are MCSE 2003 and take 70-292, you earn MCSA 2003 credential. Answer: rob, thanks. Question: "sorry my english" My name is Jose armando from Colombia, I have MCP in XP but thinking of moving to 2003 in this year. i can obtain certified in 2003 only present and pass 70-290 and 70-291 exam ? Answer: That is correct. Question: If you have a MCSE nt 4.0 does this still replace the elective requirement for MCSE 2003 Answer: Yes, that will not change. Question: beta at tech-ed, will it be credited to upgrade tracks? Answer: yes Question: beta test for longhorn is free ? Answer: yes Question: How to get on the Beta Exam list? Answer: next slide Question: If I am already an MCSE on 2000 & 2003, is test 70-620 going to count towards any new higher level certifications? Answer: Yes, that exam will count towards teh Vista MCITP credentials for Consumer or Enterprise Question: If I have an MCSE 2000 can I still take the specialization exams to get security aftter March, 2008? Answer: As long as those specialization exams are not yet retired, then yes you can still optain those specializations. Question: Will there be a Systems Management specialty similar to Messaging and Security? Answer: Yes, expect to hear more around a Management credential in the near future. Question: how to participate in betas? Answer: http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcpexams/status/beta.mspx Question: the beta link does not work Answer: http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcpexams/status/beta.mspx Question: I donot have any server certification? Should I go for Windows2003 or Longhorn? Answer: It depends on what your cert goals are.. If you are going to deploy Longhorn right away when it ships then you may want to wait, but the 2003 credentials and exams for 2003 will live for quite a while. Question: can the sql server 2005 exam count as an elective towards 2003 mcse/mcsa? Answer: Yes...the new SQL 2005 TS exam does count as a genreal elective for MCSA and MCSE on Windows Server 2003. Question: what are the requerments to get on the Beta exams list Answer: If you have a current MCP or MCSA/MCSE on 2000 or 2003 you will likely get an invitation to take a Longhorn beta exam. Question: Since clustering is changing so much in LH..any plan to offer a new clustering elective exam? Answer: We are considering this...will make an annoucement in the summer. Question: will there be a terminal server specific TS or ITP cert? Answer: There are no plans for a Terminal Server specific cert, but that technology will be represented in the new exams. More info about that will come out as we get closer to launch. Question: beta ONLY at TechEd? Answer: It is unlikely that we will gather all the required data at TechEd so we will open up the beta once the TechEd event is complete. We will make announcements through the various MSL Newsletters. Question: I have been in the field for 12 years and have only taken one test not studied for can there be credit from references applied as you know the product Answer: no... Question: Is there nothing that will replace MCDST as a 'pre-MCP' qualification? Answer: MCDST has been replaced by the consumer, or enterprise desktop support. These MCITP exams will be available in mid may Question: Will there be a third pass for the Vista beta exams? Answer: hopefully not... very clever! Question: i've passed 4 core networking system exams for 2k3 mcse. should i continue pursuing this track or wait on MCITP to come out? Answer: You should continue so you can take advantage of teh upgrade exams when you need them. Question: How often will recertifcation be required? Answer: Every 3 years. Question: Will the Longhorn Beta exams ONLY be available at TechEd or will they be available in EU? Answer: They will be available worldwide Question: how many upgrade exam from ws2003 to longhorn Answer: 2 Question: If I am an MCSA and an MCSE on 2003 will it be a recommendation to upgrade both in the new format? Answer: No, if you are an MCSE for 2003, you should only take the SE upgrade exam since they are supersets / subsets of each other. Question: 1 exam upgrade for MCSA and 1 for MCSE? Answer: yes Question: I am holding MCSA 2003 Messaging, can I wait for new track without completing MCSE 2003 Messaging Answer: Sure, you will be able to update your MCSA for 2003 to the corresponding TS credentials for Longhorn. Question: will the upgrade beta exam available to those who do not attend TechEd 2007? Answer: Yes, but it will be a targeted invite and as always "First come first serve" with the beta exams Question: When will the new electives for MCS_ (like 70-620) appear in the elective lists for MCS_ certifications? Answer: 2 wks Question: Does passing a beta exam certify you for the technology? Answer: passing a beta is the same as passing a live exam Question: Will the Upgrade exams go through the Beta process also? Answer: yes at teched in June Question: does everyone that goes to teched will have the chance to take the longhorn beta exams or only selectedpeople ? Answer: During TechEd we will not have a cap on the numbers so anyone can take the Upgrade exams as long as they are existing SE / SA for 2003 Question: is MCSE on NT still valid as credit for MCSE2k3 cert? what about longhorn certification? Answer: no nt4 recognized for longhorn; still ok for 2003. Question: Is one of the "Longhorn" TS exams going to be focused on virtualization?

If you have your MCSE 2000, however, that is a different story - then you'd need to take 292 and 296. Question: regarding MCDST vs MCITP, the loss of MCDST means that the easier/beginners exam has gone. Is there any plans for a 'pre-MCTS' qualification to replace MCDST on Vista? Answer: hey paul. the equivalent to MCDST today is MCTS: Vista/MCITP: Enterprise Support Technician... i'm not sure i'd say any of those were 'beginner', just focused on a different job role. for XP, MCDST, for Vista, MCTS/MCITP -- shoud be pretty good mapping. Does that help? Question: Something special for MVP (Invitation to beta exam Upgrade) Answer: not sure if we have that planned; good idea. Question: Is there a session 2?

Will you have to start over? Answer: No...just pass the recertification exam (likely to be a TS exam) and you will be reinstated. Question: will I get certification if I pass the beta exam Answer: passing a beta = passing the live exam. if that exam earns a credential, you will get teh credential if you apss the beta Question: Do you have the numbers for the two upgrade exams MCSE2003=>Longhorn? Answer: We will release the numbers to the MCP Community in May. Question: mcse + 2 upgrade exams = mcitp? What = Architect track Answer: mcse + 2 upgrade exams = mcitp? NO.

Question: Outside of the elearning resources that will be come availible next month are additional Whitepapers for changes and updates on the lates builds of Longhorn that we can study for the beta exams? Answer: check out the longhorn pages on MSCOM (the product group); i'm sure they are posting tons of informatino as we lead up to beta 3. Question: Do you plan to do anything with the MCSE track to make techs more business savy. The SBSC track is training for business readiness as well as technical readiness. Some of us who have an MBA would like to see a consulting track for business and technology MCSE speciality such as MCSE Consulting rather than MCSE Exchange Answer: can you send me a mail trikah@microsoft.com and i'll followup. Question: how can i work with you guys Answer: Man! good question. Check out the career portal on microsoft.com as the best place to start! Question: Which paper would be the better one? Answer: what is your specific situation? Question: Does the three year period start when you pass the last exam, or when you are notified by MS that you have the certification?

    - OT: Finally It's over. We're in our new building. I'm in my own office, on my own machine, finally with a free moment. Was crazy running operations out of two buildings while all the servers were back in our old building. But everyone's up and running, all our apps work, and DNS isn't F'ed up anymore. We figured that now was a good time to "tighten up" our IP addresses on the network, and DNS threw a fit when we did this, but I straightened it all out. Now I just have to decorate this office. I have my Don and Jerry bobblehead, a Sox clock, and a nudy calendar. But it still looks bare. Of course, I have the whole server room to "man up" as well. Alright, I'm out. I'll continue to be a ghost in here for a while until everyone's totally settled, all printers are installed, and people figure out where on their desk they want their computers (yep, I have to do this too. They're idots). Later. KB Tag: OT: New address Tag: 212771

    - Just Starting out Hi Gents, I've just started a career in IT and would like to get some industry certs under my belt. I've been searching around and it seems like an mcse would be a good place to start. I've checked a few sites which detail Â£1000 per exam, but these come with training. I'm quite happy to buy a book and praccy at work though. So where do I start exactly? Do I get the books from amazon and book the exams at prometric.com? Do I need to sign up with microsoft somewhere?? Are my details held somewhere on a central database which confirm my mcse qualifications? Any advice would be much appreciated! I don't know where to start.... Thanks. Tag: OT: New address Tag: 212732

    - What MCSE in todays world makes more sense. Hi there folks, I'm a newcomer to this strange place so be gental. Im considering starting to work my way through the various exams towards an MCSE in Server 2003 or 2000 however I'm not sure which one would make more sense. In the previous places ive worked over the last few years 2000 has been the server OS of choice however 2003 being a newer OS will probabally come into its own sooner or later and will probabally be the longer running OS. Ive already dont my study on 70-271 and 70-272 and will be sitting them in a week or so. I plan on starting off with 70-270 (the XP client exam) due to the fact its in both tracks. anyway thanks in advance for your advice. Kal Tag: OT: New address Tag: 212579

Why vista use this system requirement! Thanks a lot ! Mohsen Amiri Besheli (MSCE) I start this topic here because i think you are good enough to answer it ! Tag: OT: New address Tag: 212575

    - 70-293 + design exam question. Some background: I've been in the IT industry since 1989 and have been working with Windows NT/2k/2k3 since 96. I usually don't do the certs but I took the 2k mcsa exams back in 2003 without any problems. I've since taken and passed the 70-292, 70-294 during the past month with scores in the 800s using the mspress self study books. I plan on taking the 293 next month. I need to figure out a design exam. Most of my experience has been with nt/2k ad. I plan on upgrading the ad to 2k3 this summer. I'm considering taking the 219 on the same day. I figure since I'm fairly familiar with 2k, that shouldn't be too much trouble. According to my transcript planner this is a valid design exam for me for 2k3 mcse. Am I thinking the wrong way, or should I look into 297 0r 298? I have 7 years of exchange (4,5.5,2k) but haven't managed one since 2003, so I don't think 285 would be an option. I'm paying for these out of pocket and I have to take off work to take them, so I really don't want to have to retake. Tag: OT: New address Tag: 212564
