+Note that the server is just listening on the local interface and is not (yet) accessible over the network. Once that the server has started you should be able to see the web interface on http://localhost:8080/radar.

+Choose the Station->Demo to start a demonstration session and verify that the server installation is working correctly.

 ==== Finish up the installation ====
 
+We use an apache webserver as a reverse proxy to make the Flarmradar server available on the network. If not already done, install the Apache Webserver and enable the required modules
 
+{{{
+$ sudo -i apt-get install apache2
+$ sudo -i a2enmod rewrite proxy_http
+}}}
+
+Next we need to configure our reverse proxy. We want all requests for /radar and /rest to be directed to our Flarmradar server running on http://localhost:8080. Add the following stampa to your virtual host.
+
+{{{
+    #
+    # Rewrite Rules for Flarmradar
+    #
+    RewriteEngine On
+
+    RewriteLog /var/log/apache2/www.flarmradar.ch.rewrite.log
+    RewriteLogLevel 0
+    RewriteRule   ^/radar(.*)$    http://localhost:8080/radar$1  [P]
+    RewriteRule   ^/rest(.*)$    http://localhost:8080/rest$1  [P]
+
+    ProxyRequests Off
+    ProxyPassReverse /radar/ http://localhost:8080/radar/
+    ProxyPassReverse /rest/ http://localhost:8080/rest/
+}}}
+
+... and finally restart the webserver to read the new configuration
+ 
+{{{
+$ sudo -i service apache2 restart
+}}}
