As a rule of thumb, if you need to know how to configure a package you just do a "dpkg -L packagename". This will list *ALL* files in the package. Now look for anything going into /etc, it'll give you a very good clue on how to configure the package. Also look for any *configure* scripts, as many packages have those. Of course, the manpages and /usr/share/doc/packagename are your friends. Use them. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
