- was wondering about this as I'm going to be doing these
According to product managers in the Microsoft certification program, the beta for six exams will be released in June, followed by public release of four exams in August.
Microsoft said there will be no separate beta exam for the upcoming Exam 70-292, "Managing and maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 environment for an MCSA certified on Windows 2000," (MCSA and MCSE, part one) and Exam 70-296, "Planning, implementing, and maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 environment for an MCSE certified on Windows 2000," (MCSE, part two). Instead, Microsoft will use the beta results for Exam 70-290 "Managing and maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 environment" and Exam 70-291 "Implementing, managing, and maintaining a Windows Server 2003 network infrastructure" to drive the final form of the 70-292 exam.
Likewise, it will combine 70-293 "Planning and Maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Network Infrastucture" and 70-294 "Planning, Implementing, and Maintaining a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Active Directory Infrastructure" to drive the final form of the 70-296 exam.
The lawsuit has triggered a hostile response against SCO among some in the Linux community. For example, the Linux news site PCLinuxOnline is urging a boycott of SCO products.
Two weeks ago, SCO warned that the lawsuit might hurt its business and alienate some in the computing industry. Indeed, SuSE, the SCO business partner that develops the UnitedLinux software SCO relies on, said it is re-evaluating its relationship with SCO because of the lawsuit.
But SCO is sticking to its Linux business, even though most of its sales come from its Unix products. SCO Linux Server 4.0 for Itanium chips includes remote management features, clustering capabilities to let one system take over if another fails and security auditing tools. The software is available now.
