What is the best documentation for Linux servers?

Q. Linux server with better documentation to enter the world of Linux servers.

A. Linux server? What server? Every Linux application, server or not, includes the author's documentation. There is a Linux command that specifically opens those files. It's called "man" (short for manual) like "man apache" (Apache is the worldwide leading web server to date). If you search the internet for more documentation, chances are you will be brought to a page that more or less replicates the 'man' page. There are other sites that document personal notes about installation which may or may not be useful to you and there are books that cater to specific and broad server installation procedures which more or less go back to the man page.

How to install a proxy server on a Linux server and use it from my Windows computer?
Q. My Linux server is in the USA. I'm in Canada. I want to use my Linux server as a proxy to be "detected" as coming from the USA when I surf the web. Thank you for your help!
It would be nice to have a step-by-step how-to.

A. A very easy and non-permanent way to do this can be done using ssh. You could use cron to automate this so that it is always on, or on at certain times.

Check out this website for a very clear tutorial on how to do this.
