I'm at a loss here.  This is basic Unix configuration, covered in every
Linux beginner's guide, but unfortunately, every Linux dist seems to
have its own preferred way of handling it, and it also changes from
release to release.  'RTFM' springs to mind.

If anyone can suggest a useful and generically applicable FAQ entry,
I'd appreciate it.
