|
||
|
|
||
|
<P>The Linux Documentation Project book called Linux
|
||
|
Network Administrator's Guide by Olaf Kirch is pretty
|
||
|
mandatory for anyone that will set up and maintain anything
|
||
|
involving TCP/IP and Internet
|
||
|
<P><CODE>
|
||
|
<A HREF="ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/linux-doc-project/network-guide/nag-1.0.ascii.tar.gz">ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/linux-doc-project/network-guide/nag-1.0.ascii.tar.gz</A></CODE>
|
||
|
<P>The documentation that follows each software package will
|
||
|
normally give you all the detailed information you need, if not
|
||
|
always the overview. The man-pages will be the first place to
|
||
|
look. Try for instance:
|
||
|
<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>
|
||
|
<PRE>
|
||
|
man pppd
|
||
|
</PRE>
|
||
|
</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>
|
||
|
<P>You will also find some documentation about certain programs in
|
||
|
the
|
||
|
<!--
|
||
|
/usr/doc
|
||
|
-->
|
||
|
/usr/doc tree, although
|
||
|
this is not always well structured.
|
||
|
<P>The following HOWTOs will be highly relevant:
|
||
|
<P>
|
||
|
<UL>
|
||
|
<LI> <B>Installation-HOWTO</B> will get the basics
|
||
|
sorted.</LI>
|
||
|
<LI> <B>NET-2-HOWTO</B> is a very thorough
|
||
|
description of installation and setup of the NET code. Much of
|
||
|
this should already have been done if you use a standard Linux
|
||
|
distribution (e.g. Slackware, Red Hat, Debian). But many
|
||
|
sections on setup and troubleshooting will be very worthwhile.</LI>
|
||
|
<LI> <B>Mail-HOWTO</B> explains how to configure
|
||
|
various tools. Again, much of this will already have been done
|
||
|
for you when you install a standard Linux distribution.</LI>
|
||
|
<LI> <B>News-HOWTO</B> is for setting up a
|
||
|
(conventional) news spool.</LI>
|
||
|
<LI> <B>Tiny-News</B> covers yet another
|
||
|
alternative for collecting news.</LI>
|
||
|
<LI> <B>PPP-HOWTO</B> is a good description of
|
||
|
problems you may encounter when setting up a PPP connection.</LI>
|
||
|
<LI> <B>Serial-HOWTO</B> contains everything you
|
||
|
need to know about setting up serial ports.</LI>
|
||
|
<LI> <B>Mail-Queue</B> tells you how to send up
|
||
|
<I>sendmail</I> to always queue remote mail but deliver local
|
||
|
mail at once.</LI>
|
||
|
</UL>
|
||

<P>Red Hat has a mailing list for PPP issues; to join
|
