## Configure

Configure has some general configuration options:

### Hostname

- Hostname is the local name by which other devices on the local network can reach your FreedomBox. The default hostname is freedombox.

### Domain Name

- Domain name is the global name by which other devices on the Internet can reach your FreedomBox. The value set here is used by the Chat Server (XMPP), Matrix Synapse, Certificates (Let's Encrypt), and Monkeysphere.

### Webserver Home Page

- This is an advanced option that allows you to set something other than FreedomBox Service (Plinth) as the home page to be served on the domain name of the FreedomBox. For example, if your FreedomBox's domain name is https://myfreedombox.rocks and you set MediaWiki as the home page, visiting https://myfreedombox.rocks will take you to https://myfreedombox.rocks/mediawiki/ instead of the usual https://myfreedombox.rocks/plinth/. You can set any web application, Ikiwiki wikis and blogs or Apache's default index.html page as the web server home page.

### Caution

Once some other app is set as the home page, you can only navigate to the FreedomBox Service (Plinth) by typing https://myfreedombox.rocks/plinth/ into the browser.

/freedombox can also be used as an alias to /plinth

- Tip: Bookmark the URL of FreedomBox Service (Plinth) before setting the home page to some other app.
