Description Emelie cendio 2024-11-26 11:18:41 CET
It can be difficult to know what to set agent hostname to in tl-setup and web admin. We could suggest agent hostnames likely to work.


Here are a few ideas:

 * Assuming tl-setup was started via ssh, can we get anything from ssh that tells how the machine is reached externally?

 * Contact some service on the internet and ask what our external address is

 * Query the infrastructure we're on/in, e.g. some AWS API if we're a VM, UPnP
