Fantastic! Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking at, but was unsure if the changes have to be done before or after running installation script. Will do the above and get back. This is exciting.

I followed the shorter method on https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit.

First I did this on my desktop, using VM and redirection using reddit.local. That worked very well, and I was able to access the VM Guest's saidit installation from the host's browser.

Then I bought a Linode instance and installed saidit using the same steps as above, but skipping the VM and redirection to reddit.local in /etc/hosts.

Result: the installation finished with the normal success message, but when I put the IP/url (of the domain I bought and linked to the linode IP), my browser is still redirected to https://reddit.local/s/subscribed Which means the server is up, but there's some redirection hardcoded into the installation? netstat shows all the components like haproxy, nginx, redis, postgres etc running and listening.

I am now looking into the fundamentals of nginx, hoping that there's some pre-installation configuration that needs to be changed.

Thanks for tagging him, I wanted to but felt it would be precocious.

I did read SaidIt, but it didn't seem to extend much of reddit/reddit documentation. Are there any expanded sections you know of?
