But is this not an issue of the quality of the HOWTO, or at
least the amount of details it goes into, than a format issue? I
have rarely seen well written helpfiles in the alternate OS; and yes,
I have seen HOWTO's actually giving the level of detail for me to
actually put up a firewall. Or listar. Or indeed, diald and pppd.
