>I don't suppose some of you ISP folks would consider taking a walk on >the wild side with SGML and begin writing up a little "ISP's Guide to >FreeBSD", much as Paul Vixie has done for BSDI? Definitely. For many applications, a simple series of steps that would get a basic version of the application up and running would silence a lot of questions. For instance, it isn't necessary to describe every way an Apache server can be set up. If you give someone a simple document that says, "Follow these steps and you will have a basic Apache server running on your FreeBSD server," then 90% of the questions are answered and the reader can usually figure out a lot of the configuration options from there. The following documents would probably save a lot of redundant questions: Starting a basic web server. Starting a basic FTP server. Starting a basic popmail server. Starting a basic news server. Any others that people would like to see? Joe Mays
