One training expert, however, cautions that Red Hat certifications can lock administrators in to Red Hat-specific skills.

And the MSCE and other qualifications don't?

What a crock. I've passed the RHCE (with a 100% score in all sections). At no point did I feel that I was forced to use any Red Hat specific utilities or conventions. The exam is purely performance-based - Red Hat doesn't care if you want to use postfix or sendmail, vi or emacs,, or how the services start up at boot, as long as the specifications are met. You have to know how to use anaconda, but that's about it for RH-specific things that I can recall.
