13.3. Where to Turn for Help

As Linux is developed by members of the Internet community, the best place to get help is probably by posting a message to any of the following newsgroups:

Miscellaneous postings not covered by other groups: comp.os.linux.misc
Networking-related issues under Linux: comp.os.linux.networking
Security-related issues under Linux: comp.os.linux.security
Linux installation & system administration: comp.os.linux.setup
Everybody is entitled to their opinion :-p: alt.linux.sux

For non Linux-specific topics, there are a variety of groups in the comp.* heirarchy that may suit your needs. Here are just a few of them:

Cisco router/access-server line of products: comp.dcom.sys.cisco
Miscellaneous web server questions: comp.infosystems.www.servers.misc
General unix (not Linux-specific) questions: comp.os.unix
The SMB protocol (WfW/95/NT-style file/print services): comp.protocols.smb

There are also several resources on the Web that may be useful. Do a web search for "Linux", or visit any of the following:

Linux Resources: http://www.linuxresources.com/
The Linux Documentation Project: http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/
The RPM repository: http://rufus.w3.org/linux/RPM/
The Linux Software Map: http://www.boutell.com/lsm

The Apache Web Server: http://www.apache.org/
The Squid HTTP Proxy Caching Daemon: http://squid.nlanr.net/Squid/

There are a myriad of mailing lists that may prove helpful in providing answers to your questions as well. These can usually be found through a simple web search (for example, searching for ``linux raid mailing list'' might help you find mailing lists devoted to RAID issues under Linux). Here are some I recommend; to subscribe to any of these lists, simply send an e-mail message to the subscription address listed with the word "subscribe" in the body of your message:

Red Hat Mailing Lists: Description of available Red Hat lists: http://www.redhat.com/
GNOME Mailing Lists: Description of available GNOME lists: http://www.gnome.org/mailing-lists/index.shtml

Linux RAID Mailing List: Subscription address: linux-raid-request@vger.rutgers.edu

Finally, you may be interested in checking out the following two sites, both of which are my personal "daily must read" favorites. SlashDot covers the latest technology news in general with a definite Linux slant, while FreshMeat provides an up-to-date listing of Open Source applications announcements.

SlashDot: News For Nerds: http://slashdot.org/
