Linux Documentation Project - Content

Content

The LDP publishes many HowTo documents, which instruct a user on the specific steps to take to achieve a desired goal. These goals are sometimes very specific, such as configuring a particular modem, and sometimes very broad, such as how to administer a network for an ISP.

Very broad topics are covered in the guides, which are book-length documents, usually on broad subjects such as security or networking.

The LDP also publishes Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) lists, man pages and other documents, as well as two webzines, the Linux Gazette and Linux Focus.

Much of the LDP collection is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL). Many other licenses are also used, as long as they are freely distributable. Current policy recommends the GFDL.

Linux Network Administrator's Guide is one book in the series.

Famous quotes containing the word content:

    To be content is to be happy.
    Chinese proverb.

    People disparage knowing and the intellectual life, and urge doing. I am content with knowing, if only I could know.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Yet the New Testament treats of man and man’s so-called spiritual affairs too exclusively, and is too constantly moral and personal, to alone content me, who am not interested solely in man’s religious or moral nature, or in man even.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
