Red Hat certification. What good will it do me?

[Krycheck]

Aside from learing linux what kind of job will it get me? More importantly will it get me a good paying job? Looking at the prices are they worth it? About $2,400 a course (some intro courses are free online).
Im interested in networking and webserver administration mostly.
Thoughts?

On it's own it prolly wont get you a high paying job, but if you were to get certificated in other areas as well you will be sorted. Most companies that deploy Linux seem to want to use redhat so redhat cert' is prolly the way to go. Doing some networking, unix, and M$ training will make you an all round good prospect for most companies.

Anyway, good luck with whatever you do.
