Welcome to Linux and Free Software, good sir, where every man must find his own way by reading what documentation he happens to find. Most of what you need to know is to be found somewhere, in man pages, READMEs, info pages, HTML doc's, Web sites, FAQs, message boards, or floating around in mailing lists like this one. Philosophically, this fits real life well enough, but there's no accounting for efficiency. Plan to spend a lot of time finding information.
But not to make this post completely useless: when the package doc's fail you, www.linuxdoc.org is a good place to start.

lol! Thanks mister, and Merry Christmas to you! ;) I got a real good look at the infopages and found out... there are links within the pages! Putting in help on filerights can be done for all commands using them, so why putting them in in every manpage, when you can link to -one- page explaining it? So there it was: a page telling me how this works. Great! ;-) That saves a lot of diskspace. Rogier Maas
