Hi all,
I have installed successfully on Ubuntu 14.04LTS and am now pondering creating my tenant. We are a very small community historical society and we have no website. Tenant creation requires a domain name but there is no description of how this will be used and if it is essential.
I plan to put a wireless router on our standalone server with no internet connection to allow us to enter our collection from a laptop and visitors to query our collection but all done within our building. Can I do this with no website? If so, what do I enter as the domain name for tenant building?
Thanks for your help

Hi Bob,

as far as I know, if you have no internet connection and you are using your
own server, your domain may be anything you want. Because your app is going
to work on a local hosting basis, the domain is not important.
Saying that, in order to avoid possible errors in the workflow of the app,
you may make up a domain name for your museum (for instance chesterville.org)
without needing to registrate it anywere.

Best regards,

Francisco
