STAFF HOWTO DOCUMENTS
---------------------------------------------------------------

On the e-smith staff side, most effort has been focused internally on
documentation for the next version of the e-smith server. As a result,
there has only been one recent addition to the list at:

  http://www.e-smith.org/docs/howto/
 
It is:

  - How to install CVS on your e-smith server, by Dan York

Additionally, Ross Laver updated his HOWTO on burning CD images to include a
section on using 'md5sum' to verify the quality of a downloaded ISO image.

For more information about any of this, or if you have questions or feedback,
please contact documentation@e-smith.com

Note that all of these HOWTO documents are specific to the e-smith server.
