ClamAV with Sendmail on Fedora Core 1
by Ron Goulard 14 May '04

14 May '04

I've created a document detailing the install of clam antivirus for use with sendmail on FC1. It was suggested to me to perhaps see if it could be of use here. If anyone is interested, the doc can be found at http://www.airride.net/linux/fedora+clamav-howto.html Feel free to post a copy wherever you think it may help. Thank you Ron Goulard

<qandaset> list of questions not working
by Karsten Wade 14 May '04

14 May '04

The Fedora SELinux FAQ[1] is starting to get sizable, and messy without a list of questions at the top. I'm having trouble fixing this. Our default XSL stylesheets for HTML (xsl/main-html.xsl, xsl/html-common.xsl, and redhat.xsl) don't have a call to make the list of questions for a FAQ written with <qandaset>[2]. It seemed straightforward to call qandaset.xsl[3], just as other stylesheets are called in the Fedora docs XSL. I have had no success, in fact zero recognizable difference in the resulting document, with these efforts: * Tried importing, then tried including qandaset.xsl into main-html.xsl, which is the main XSL called from the Makefile. <xsl:import="/usr/share/sgml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets/html/qandaset.xsl"/> ... didn't work ... <xsl:include="/usr/share/sgml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets/html/qandaset.xsl"/> .... didn't work ... * Under the heading <xsl:param name="generate.toc">, I tried adding "qanda toc" and "qandaset toc", underneath the "section nop" in both cases. No luck there. I didn't feel that this area of the XSL was related to the solution, but I tried it anyway. Any ideas? - Karsten [1] http://people.redhat.com/kwade/fedora-docs/selinux-faq-en/ http://people.redhat.com/kwade/fedora-docs/selinux-faq/selinux-faq-en.xml [2] http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/qandaset.html [3] /usr/share/sgml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets/html/qandaset.xsl -- Karsten Wade, Sr. Tech Writer this is not the .signature you are looking for http://people.redhat.com/kwade/ gpg fingerprint: 2680 DBFD D968 3141 0115 5F1B D992 0E06 AD0E 0C41

Some "training" materials
by Colin Charles 29 Apr '04

29 Apr '04

While not documentation related directly, we might find a way into making the documentation available useful: http://training.bytebot.net/linux/ It's FC1 skewed, with GNOME, it might be a good starting point for a Starter Guide Don't worry about licensing, I'll gladly do so if required for the project -- Colin Charles, byte(a)aeon.com.my http://www.bytebot.net/

Coordinated list of writers/tutorials?
by Ed Verosky 07 Apr '04

07 Apr '04

I'm interested in volunteering for the Documentation Project, however I'm having trouble locating a list of available topics to write on. I would assume certain topics are already being worked on, and would like to avoid spending time on a tutorial that someone else is just about finished with. Any advice? -- Ed Verosky
