Few beginners tips and tricks and its because, I am new to Slackware and this for me to remember :) and not for you brother. kidding !!!

Configuring Network
Howto setup Static IP

Let's look at "slackpkg" it is automated slackware tool for installing, updating, upgrading software and patches. To understand in super fast way it does work simillar to debian's "apt-get" Redhat "yum", openSuse "zypper".
# man slackpkg (for more info on it)
# slackpkg search filename (such as: httpd, game, word)
# slackpkg install httpd
# slackpkg upgrade httpd
To update the slackware
#slackpkg update gpg
#slackpkg update
This is to setup SSH server and basically, it almost same in every distro of
# vim /etc/ssh/sshd_config
# /etc/rc.d/rc.sshd start
# /etc/rc.d/rc.sshd stop
Check using "netstat" if the daemon is running or not
# netstat -tlp
