Yep -- it's called start reading at the source and go from there:

Start here:

Then go here:

P.S. the above wasn't meant to sound flipant. I learned the same way I suggested above. Five minutes before I left work my plant manager asked me to assign permissions to the project managers to access certain files and directories. Guess what I'm going to do first thing in the morning when I get in? Read my Novell CNA book to make sure I get it right!
