Took 70-271 this morning and glad to say I passed. Test was much harder then expected, but ok. Tip for anyone who needs still to pass this. Bone up on everything - Network / Shares / NTFS permissions / VPN / Network connectivity issues (domain and workgroup) / Printers (permissions). They are the main ones, well bulk of my questions were about that stuff. With one or two USB type ones, but dead easy. Glad its over with now.. till the next cert. MCSA(2003) Good Luck all who still to come. Methos MCDST, MCP, Network+, A+
