44.4 The Linux Documentation Project
The Linux Documentation Project (TLDP) is run by a team of volunteers
who write Linux and Linux-related documentation (see https://www.tldp.org). The set of documents contains tutorials for
beginners, but is mainly focused on experienced users and
professional system administrators. TLDP publishes HOWTOs, FAQs, and guides
(handbooks) under a free license.
44.4.1 HOWTOs
HOWTOs are usually a short, informal, step-by-step guide to
accomplishing
a specific task. It is written by experts for nonexperts in a
procedural manner. For example, how to configure a DHCP server. HOWTOs can
be found in the package howto
and are installed under
/usr/share/doc/howto
44.4.2 Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs (frequently asked questions) are a series of questions
and answers. They originate
from Usenet newsgroups where the purpose was to reduce continuous
reposting of the same basic questions.
