HI,
Yes I would have to agree, the CEH is very basic. I passed the exam (70% to
pass) without studying the material. I basically used my knowledge of 8 years
in the IT Security industry.
I would highly recommend the Certified Expert Penetration Tester course from
InfoSec Institute. You will NOT certify unless you demonstrate (practically)
that you can identify a vulnerability within a application (i.e. binary) and
develop an exploit to attack that vulnerability.
It's an excellent course and very hands on. It will weed out the paper ethical
hackers from the real ethical hackers.
The guy who is the course instructor is the author of the Shell Coders Handbook.

ps. Don't forget about the OSSTMM courses which are available now !!!

Hi,
CEH is quite broad and basically you will just take a look at a lot of
tools (many of them outdated). So it actually depends on the
instructor on how much details he will show in the class, as well as
the tools he will use for practice.
