[g6094199]

hi

i'm not into openwisp right now. and dont want to. no need for such a comlex solution. but when opensoho steped up it got my attention.
i know its a fast moving target right now, but i wanna spent some time on testing and reporting bugs.

but as a noob it makes it hart to get it working. it stops at the simple advice:

Set the Server URL and the Shared secret only. It is important to NOT a trailing slash to the Server URL.

what the hell is the shared secret? where can i create it? ;-)

so plz gimme a kick in the right direction..

regards
sash

btw: running 0.9.0

Hi Sash,

That's indeed a good point you're making. I added a extra explanation in the README.
Let me know if that is clear:
https://github.com/rubenbe/opensoho/blob/main/README.md#install-opensoho

Feel free to make a pull request on the documentation. It is highly appreciated.

Also, you might want to read the topic on the OpenWRT forum
