I'm getting ready to start a 7-week CCNA course and I'm wondering if anybody else who has gotten their cert can suggest some good online resources they used to help along the way? I looking for forums, blogs, etc, stuff I can read at work/during down time that will keep me thinking.

Just to confirm, the old-style ICND1 exam code on Pearson Vue's website is the 640-822? And is the old ICND2 640-816?

That's right.

Great, thanks!

640-822 scheduled and paid for, that should kick my rear end in gear... Any thoughts about the premium subscription to the cisco learning network? At 10 bucks a month, would it be useful for the next couple months to help study for the ICND1/2 before it changes, or is it pretty much a waste of money?

Can anyone recommend a good practice exam package for the 640-822/816?

Passed my ICND1 this afternoon with a 912.

I'm almost positive one of the questions was incorrect, too, is there a mechanism for reporting stuff like this? The question was a simple host range problem with the subnet being 192.168.4.0/26. That should include 192.168.4.1-192.168.4.62, and there was only one answer in that range and I had to choose two...

I got a low score on of the config questions...am I allowed to post the general topic of the question? Because I think once I do it will be clear why...

Absolutely, as long as it isn't THE test question there shouldn't be a problem with it.

Three words: VLAN database mode.

That thing I didn't bother to study because every thing I read about it told me that it was deprecated and not to use it. I almost lost my poo poo in the testing room. I loving had VTP down-pat and that is how they tested me on it. If I hadn't passed, and I nearly didn't, I would have been loving livid.

Basically, reversing the wildcard mask to find my network increments, and then see if the given IP address falls in that range. Am I describing it right?

I'm not sure what you mean by network increments, but finding matching host address in a wildcard is easy because the "interesting" octet in your wildcard basically defines the upper boundary of your possible host addresses(e.g. 0.0.0.15 tells you that your possible host addresses will be .1-.14).
