Description of problem:
This concerns rhl-ig-x86(EN)-7.2-Print-RHI (2001-08-30T12:12-0400) and is about
one of my infamus problems with many manuals.
I run into statements all the time to see the system admisitrator. Well in many
of the small companies I have worked for I become the administrator. I think
this approch is a cop-out. I know the subject is complex but this statement
leaves the person reading it up in the air if there is no administrator. I think
it would do well to mention documentation on your site or in reference books
that the person could use to gain the information needed if there is no one to
turn to at the company. I am now able to find my way thru most of these problems
now but I know that the people most likely to be trying Linux are going to be
small companies not yet infected with IBM and who are probably trying to get rid
of the curse of MS. If they have no place to get the needed information they
will probably box up the RedHat and go back to the windows. I don't want to see
that. Just give them a place to go for the information if you can not provide it
yourself.
