Hi Robert:
That's going to be difficult because Fedora is fast moving. There are
a number of FAQs that will be more current and probably better
written (IMO).
One thing that both helps and hinders is to install webmin. It helps
because it provides a GUI to server configurations, IPTables and a
host of other things. It hinders because you really need to learn the
command line.
Another thing that might help is to install system-config-control
from extras. This provides a unified menu to all of the configuration
programs. The daemons that you are referring to are controlled
through the services configuration.
