<p>The <b>Linux Documentation Project</b> (LDP) is a dormant all-volunteer project that maintains a large collection of <a href="GNU" title="GNU">GNU</a> and <a href="Linux" title="Linux">Linux</a>-related documentation and publishes the collection online.<sup id="cite_ref-paul_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-paul-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It began as a way for <a href="Hacker_(programmer_subculture)" class="mw-redirect" title="Hacker (programmer subculture)">hackers</a> to share their <a href="Documentation" title="Documentation">documentation</a> with each other and with their users, and for users to share documentation with each other. Its documents tend to be oriented towards <a href="Experienced_user" class="mw-redirect" title="Experienced user">experienced users</a> such as professional system administrators, but it also contains tutorials for beginners.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

<p>The LDP originally began as an <a href="File_Transfer_Protocol" title="File Transfer Protocol">FTP</a> site in 1992, but it went on the <a href="World_Wide_Web" title="World Wide Web">World Wide Web</a> at <a href="Ibiblio" title="Ibiblio">MetaLab</a> in 1993.<sup id="cite_ref-paul_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-paul-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It is believed to have been the first Linux related website ever.

</p><p>Today, the LDP serves over 475 documents contributed by even more authors. About a dozen of them are book length, and most of those are available in print from major technical publishers including <a href="O'Reilly_Media" title="O'Reilly Media">O'Reilly</a>.

</p><p>In 2008, LDP started <i>The LDP Wiki</i>; the <a href="Wiki" title="Wiki">wiki</a> has since gone offline with the last entry dating to 2016.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>As of 2025, the most recent update to an LDP guide was in March 2014.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Content">Content</h2></div>

<p>The LDP published many "HOWTO" documents that instruct a user on the specific steps to take to achieve a desired goal.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

These goals are sometimes very specific, such as configuring a particular modem, and sometimes very broad, such as how to administer a <a href="Computer_network" title="Computer network">network</a> for an <a href="Internet_service_provider" title="Internet service provider">ISP</a>.

</p><p>Very broad topics were covered in the guides, which are book-length documents, usually on broad subjects such as security or networking.

</p><p>The LDP also published Frequently Asked Question (<a href="FAQ" title="FAQ">FAQ</a>) lists, man pages and other documents, as well as two <a href="Webzine" class="mw-redirect" title="Webzine">webzines</a>, the <a href="Linux_Gazette" title="Linux Gazette">Linux Gazette</a> and <a href="Linux_Focus" class="mw-redirect" title="Linux Focus">Linux Focus</a>.

</p><p>Much of the LDP collection is licensed under the <a href="GNU_Free_Documentation_License" title="GNU Free Documentation License">GNU Free Documentation License</a> (GFDL). Many other licenses are also used, as long as they are freely distributable. Current policy recommends the GFDL.

</p><p><a href="Linux_Network_Administrator's_Guide" title="Linux Network Administrator's Guide">Linux Network Administrator's Guide</a> is one book in the series.
