??? question "How can I have different hostnames for multiple pikvms?"
Using a SSH session or the web terminal:
- Make sure you're `root`, if you're not root use the `su` command to become root
- Enter read write mode of the PiKVM by executing the `rw` command

- Optional: Edit `/etc/kvmd/meta.yaml` to alter the displayed server name in the web UI
- Reboot the pikvm
