i appreciate ur reply awsec..do u suggest me any other material apart from wht i hav referred in my post above..n please lemme kn wat is the level of difficulty for this exam. 

The Career Academy stuff is pretty good, as is the stuff from Intense Schools / Quickcert.

Aside of that, just build yourself a lab, and start testing with some of the tools, etc, and I think you'll do OK.  As awesec said in his post, if you've got the certs you listed in your signature, this one shouldn't be too bad, either, so long as you DO spend some time both studying the written / video materials (whatever you have) and actually test some things in your lab.

Good luck!

For the firewall you can think of IPtables (Linux). It's free and software based

Good Luck on it.. I just took it today and made a 82%.  Lower than I would have liked but its a pass or fail thing to get the cert..

Hi Folks,

I wanted to throw my 2 cents in here, and ask for some beta testers at the same time
My 2 cents: Security Interviews or going for new security positions.

Let’s remember 2 major objectives for any learning program:

1: Pass the exam and get the paper that provides backup that you have the theory.

2: Gain real world experience. Work experience, internships, beta testers etc.

Let’s say you go for a new interview at a bank for a Security Pen Tester position and they ask you to say break into their FDCC mandated (Federal Desktop Core Configuration), would you have the knowledge and skills to achieve that?
My opinion is based on the kind of learning style that you would succeed most with. I am what you would call a difficult learner.

Take a look at the Edgar Dale Learning Cone. I need all elements to achieve the greatest learning results.

Help Please: I have a great opportunity for anyone that wants to help beta test the new CEH SWAT Hands-On Lab exercises and LMS. I am releasing at Hacker Halted in Miami. For $500 (we donate $50 to Hackers for Charity (www.hackersforcharity.org) you will get CEHv6 40 hours CBT videos plus free CEHv7 upgrade, and complete LMS coverage for 12 months, which also includes weekly Live sessions.

The difference between the majority of CBT offering available and what we have built is a 40% increased learning understanding and retention based on the Blended Learning philosophy. We can achieve the greater success results because of the hands-on practical’s and the weekly 2 hour live session with me Wayne Burke. EC-Council use our video’s for the iClass delivery modalities.

Your efforts will be appreciated by me personally, and Hackers for Charit, plus all Gov, DOD, Law Enforcement as we will release a GOV version of CEH SWAT DOD8570.

Blended Learning Mentored by a teacher that has the experience to offer all the elements required. Like seeing and doing. So when I teach a class I want the student to build the theory and map it to what the typical job requirements would be.

Contact us if you are interested to learn from someone that has the experience to lead you down the correct path and meet both exam and practical experience objectives.

I am hoping to offer EH Net some free seats as soon as I have spoken to Don.
Just finished a 18 hour day/night after delivering a live First Look webinar on Web Hacking for EC-Council 

Hope we can all contribute to raising the quality that one should expect.
Adios
