I think that concepts are nice however the exam wanted to know a great deal about things like command line switches used in ettercap, and nmap, and novell password crackers.... Things that are a waste of headspace in my opinion. They spent a lot more time covering the tools rather than the concepts (which were technically varies from Heap/Buffer overflow to XSS, to SQL injection, to blind spoofing). It's a good class if you didn't have to cram it into 40 hours or something like that. The test wasn't all that diffficult. Someone who could pass one of the SANS exams with a little study up on all the tools that are covered in the CEH would pass with flying colors. Just my 2c.
