Chapter 1. What Are Linux HOWTOs?

   Linux HOWTOs are documents which describe in detail a certain aspect
   of configuring or using Linux. For example, there is the Installation
   HOWTO, which gives instructions on installing Linux, and the Mail
   Administrator HOWTO, which describes how to set up and configure mail
   under Linux. Other examples include the Net HOWTO and the Printing
   HOWTO.

   HOWTOs are comprehensive docs - much like an FAQ but generally not in
   question-and-answer format. However, many HOWTOs contain a FAQ
   section at the end.

   There are several HOWTO formats available: plain text, PostScript,
   PDF, and HTML.
     ________________________________________________________________

Chapter 2. Where Can I Get Linux HOWTOs?

   HOWTOs can be retrieved via anonymous FTP from
   [ftp://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/]
   ftp://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/ as well as from many
   [http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/MIRRORS.html] mirror sites around
   the world. Please use a mirror site if possible.

   You can also browse HOWTOs in [howtos.html] HTML format or grab
   [http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/other-formats/html/Linux
   -html-HOWTOs.tar.gz] Linux-html-HOWTOs.tar.gz for viewing on your own
   workstation. The files will be extracted into HOWTO/.

   Other formats can be accessed from the HOWTO
   [http://tldp.org/docs.html#howto] documents page of the LDP.

   Many [http://tldp.org/mirrors.html] mirror sites mirror the HTML
   files. tldp.org is heavily used, so please use a mirror site if
   possible.

Chapter 6. Single list of mini-HOWTOs

   The mini-HOWTOs have been folded into the [howtos.html] full list of
   HOWTOs.
     ________________________________________________________________

Chapter 7. Unmaintained HOWTOs

   There are a number of unmaintained documents, which can be found at:
   [http://www.tldp.org/authors/unmaint.html]
   http://tldp.org/authors/unmaint.html.

   These are kept around since old documentation is sometimes better
   than none. However, you should be aware that you are reading old
   documentation.

   If the date tag is too old, please consider the HOWTO as
   unmaintained.

   However, there are exceptions, such as those that document older
   programs and procedures that still might be in use, or those that
   cover more obscure topics.
     ________________________________________________________________

Chapter 8. Writing and Submitting a HOWTO

   If you are interested in writing or maintaining a HOWTO, please
   contact us FIRST at [mailto:feedback@en.tldp.org]
   feedback@en.tldp.org. If you want to maintain a unmaintained HOWTO,
   please try to contact the former author.

   Consult the [../../LDP/LDP-Author-Guide/index.html] LDP Author Guide
   for detailed information on writing and submitting a HOWTO.

   Here are a few general guidelines that you should follow when writing
   a HOWTO:

     * Try to use meaningful structure and organization, and write
       clearly. Remember that many of the people reading HOWTOs do not
       speak English as their first language.
     * Make sure that all of the information is correct. We can't stress
       this enough. When in doubt, speculate, but make it clear that
       you're only guessing.
     * Make sure that you are covering the most recent version of the
       available software. Also, be sure to include full instructions on
       where software can be downloaded from (FTP site name,
       fullpathname), and the current version number and release date of
       the software.
     * Include an FAQ section at the end, if appropriate. Many HOWTO
       documents need a ``FAQ'' or ``Common Problems'' section to cover
       information which cannot be covered in the regular text.
     * HOWTOs should be submitted to us in either DocBook or linuxdoc
       SGML; or DocBook XML. Refer to the
       [../../LDP/LDP-Author-Guide/index.html] LDP Author Guide for
       further information.
     * Use other HOWTOs a model. The SGML/XML source to the HOWTOs is
       available on Linux FTP sites. In addition, examine the
       [../../LDP/LDP-Author-Guide/index.html] LDP Author Guide, the
       [../../manifesto.html] LDP manifesto (and license guide), and the
       [../../authors/index.html] Authors Resources area of the LDP
       site.
     * Make sure that your name, email address, date, and a version
       number is near the beginning of the document. You could also
       include WWW addresses and a postal mail address if you want. The
       standard header is: Title / Author's name and email address /
       Version number and date. For example:
       The LDP Sample HOWTO by various_authors v6.1, 2001-05-01
       Refer to the [../../LDP/LDP-Author-Guide/index.html] LDP Author
       Guide for further information.
     * Lastly, be prepared to receive questions and comments about your
       writing. There are several hundreds of accesses to the HOWTO
       collection every day from around the world.

   After you have written the HOWTO, mail the SGML source to us at
   [mailto:submit@en.tldp.org] submit@en.tldp.org.

   It is important that you go through us when submitting a HOWTO, as we
   maintain the archives and need to keep track of what HOWTOs are being
   written and who is doing what.

   Please send the LDP periodic updates whenever appropriate.
