I have some questions about the installation and setup of YunoHost.
Question 1:
From the installation instructions, I understood that YunoHost must always be set up with a domain and that it is not intended to contact the server only by its IP.
I would like to make the server accessible only in the local network, but it is not entirely clear to me from the instructions what I should specifically set for this. I have a DS-Lite connection, so the server would not be accessible without DynDNS anyway, but I would prefer to explicitly achieve exclusively local accessibility.
Question 2:
Some apps, such as Piped, ask for a different domain during installation because the existing one already has too many entries or something? What should I do there?
Question 3:
What is the administration password that some apps ask to set during installation?
The screenshot is in french, but the process is the same. You can define /add a “local domain” in order to use your Yunohost without any DNS configuration.
Question 2:
You need to add a subdomain. Some application needs to be installed at the root of the domain (path = /) so you need to first add a subdomain, like “piped.mydomain.local” and installed Piped on this domain.
Question 3 :
Some apps need a specific password for an administration account. This account is not linked to the administration account of Yunohost. The data/configuration is linked to the apps that may have the yunohost user account and a third account, dedicated to administration. During the installation process, the administration account for this apps is automatically created, so that’s why the installation process/setup ask for a password.
Thanks! This provides me with some insight. However, I’m only able to access YunoHost via its IP, despite having set up the hostname and local resolving on the router. That way, apps are not accessible. If I try to access apps via the IP adress, Im redirected to the administrator interface.
