Your question seem very general and vague to the point where I, for one, would 
find it hard to answer.

Try asking specific questions, one subject per post.  Meaning if you want to 
know about DNS configuration and sendmail configuration don't lump those 
together.

As for "acpi" what do you mean by setting it up?  Do you have, for example, a 
Toshiba laptop and do you need to install acpitool?

Is this page of value?  http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/index.html

Thanks for getting back. I receive a message from one of my older apps asking if I have loaded the 'battery' module. The only documentation I see for acpid does not go into how to configure for different modules. I looked under /etc/acpi and co mention of battery exists. I did not see anything. On my old system there was /lib/systemd/system/acpid.service. Does not appear to be here any more. My question was vague because I have been away from system configuration for awhile. My last system would not let me update files because of an error between yum and dbus that I could not resolve. I was looking for a system administration manual that described how things work, which files they use etc. When systemd came out Lennart had a 3 part description for why it was there and what was changed. I was looking for similar documentation for other changes. Or at least pointers to the appropriate man pages. I do not like to work blindly through GUI wizards, like you do under Windows.

Thanks again.
