288 disabled from a later run of Disobedience.
290 The player will log to
291 .I ~/.disorder/HOSTNAME\-rtp.log
292 so look there if it does not seem to be working.
294 You can stop it without running Disobedience by the command
295 .BR "killall disorder\-playrtp" .

328 on the same host as the server then no additional configuration should be
331 If it is running on a different host then the easiest way to set it up is to
332 use the login details window in Disobedience.
333 Enter the connection details, use Login to connect to the server, and then
334 use Save to store them for future sessions.
336 The other clients read their configuration from the same location so after
337 setting up with Disobedience, tools such as

342 There are bound to be bugs.
343 Please send feedback.
345 There is no particular provision for multiple users of the same computer
346 sharing a single \fBdisorder\-playrtp\fR process.
347 This shouldn't be too much of a problem in practice but something could
348 perhaps be done given demand.
