325.SH CONFIGURATION
326If you are using
327.B disobedience
328on the same host as the server then no additional configuration should be
329required.
330.PP
afc2fe2e 331If it is running on a different host then the easiest way to set it up is to
c0c23a60
RK
332use the login details window in Disobedience.
333Enter the connection details, use Login to connect to the server, and then
334use Save to store them for future sessions.
f4b9ba55 335.PP
afc2fe2e
RK
336The other clients read their configuration from the same location so after
337setting up with Disobedience, tools such as
338.BR disorder (1)
339should work as well.
b6579a61 340.SH BUGS
c0c23a60

341Disobedience is newly introduced with DisOrder 2.0.
342There are bound to be bugs.

345There is no particular provision for multiple users of the same computer
c0c23a60
