Can someone please assist in terms of the Kiosk hostname allocated when it is disabled within the configuration.

Default Hostname

Hi Marthin,

If hostname is not set in kiosk config then hostname defaults to 'kiosk'.
If hostname is not set and if kiosk is associated with Porteus Kiosk Server then hostname is set to the client_id number automatically.

Reference:
http://porteus-kiosk.org/parameters.html#hostname

Thanks
Please add [Solved] to your thread title if the solution was found.
