+==== Making Serviio's MediaBrowser accessible via the web ====
+<note>Instructions given are tested on an Ubuntu Server running Apache 2.4</note>
+Usually you go to http://localhost:23424/mediabrowser to access the MediaBrowser. It is possible to make something like http://www.your-example-domain.com/media. This is done with Apache's ProxyPass.
+Enable proxy module
+<code>a2enmod proxy</code>
+Make a new Apache configuration file
+<code>nano /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/001-serviio.conf</code>
+Put this inside
+<code><Location /media>
+Require all granted
+ProxyPass http://localhost:23424/mediabrowser
+ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:23424/mediabrowser
+</Location>
+<Location /cds>
+Require all granted
+ProxyPass http://localhost:23424/cds
+ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:23424/cds
+</Location></code>
+Enable the new configuration and reload your configuration
+<code>
+a2ensite 001-serviio
+service apache reload
+</code>
+==== Setting up a password ====
+Go to <ip-address of the server>:23423/console/ and use this console to set up a password.
