There are good documents on Metalink (one in particular by Lawrence To). The Oracle RDBMS manuals are informative as well.
I run a script bat file on Windows on the primary to transfer the logs every half hour to the secondary. And a bat file once a day on the secondary to apply the logs. I use blat to send an email of the last log applied so that I can be sure everything is OK. I don't run in managed mode, the servers come down occasionally and that messes up the standby if you're not careful.
