I found this on the www.fedoranews.org site

http://fedoranews.org/jorge/howto/howto02.shtml

If you are going to run Fedora, you should probably read that site
frequently and consider it a first line of defense in day to day
problems.  They basically take the best hits from fedora-users mailing
list and put them into articles.

HTH,
