Usually distributions install some documentation on your system. Usually they are located in /usr/share/doc/packages or /usr/local/share/doc
The software products mentioned here provide a lot of documentation in their source-directories. Apache does install its documentation in the default DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/htdocs/manual
7.5. Web Sites
There are a large number of informative web sites available. By their very nature they change quickly, so do not be surprised if these links become outdated very fast.
A good starting point is of course the Linux Documentation Project home page, a central information repository for documentation, project pages and much more.
To get more information about the Software mentioned in this document, then the following sites are good starting points.
