293.SH CONFIGURATION
294If you are using
295.B disobedience
296on the same host as the server then no additional configuration should be
297required.
298.PP
299If it is running on a different host then the easiest way to set it up is to
300use the login details window in Disobedience. Enter the connection details,
301use Login to connect to the server, and then use Save to store them for future
302sessions.
303.PP
304The other clients read their configuration from the same location so after
305setting up with Disobedience, tools such as
306.BR disorder (1)
307should work as well.
