It is recommended to see the [generic deployment guide](../deploying/generic.md) for further information if needed as usage of the Debian package is generally related.
When installed, the example config is placed at `/etc/conduwuit/conduwuit.toml` as the default config. At the minimum, you will need to change your `server_name` here.
The package uses the [`conduwuit.service`](../configuration.md#example-systemd-unit-file) systemd unit file to start and stop conduwuit. The binary is installed at `/usr/sbin/conduwuit`.
This package assumes by default that conduwuit will be placed behind a reverse proxy. The default config options apply (listening on `localhost` and TCP port `6167`). Matrix federation requires a valid domain name and TLS, so you will need to set up TLS certificates and renewal for it to work properly if you intend to federate.
Consult various online documentation and guides on setting up a reverse proxy and TLS. Caddy is documented at the [generic deployment guide](../deploying/generic.md#setting-up-the-reverse-proxy) as it's the easiest and most user friendly.
