i hadn't really thought of this before, maintaining a document put
together by savvy siglinux members that would serve to help kickstart
a newbie.  but wouldn't it just be a bunch of links to the LDP?
for those of you not familiar with the LDP: http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/
i could easily maintain such a document.  i think a troubleshooting section
with frequent issues and common questions would be helpful.

i think that making the LDP the default startup page for netscape on the
boxes we install would be a step worth the effort.
maybe also populate a good bookmarks.html file for them too.
