Hmmmm. On Sugar 0.82 "Register" achieves exactly the same (plus 2 more
things) and is easier to use.

I think they are :-) In brief: put the FQDN name in there, the one
that starts with 'schoolserver', instead of an IP address.
>From the "making SoaS and Sugar in general easy to get going in a

again.
DNS-SD based autodiscovery would be nicer ("look ma! automagic!"), but
is also more (and trickier) work.
