Hello,  
How can i make kibana to run with [http://hostname](http://hostname):port ?  
Currently its only accessible with the IP address.

My configuration:  
I set server.host: "hostname"

Hi

[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/settings.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/settings.html) , look at `server.host`.

Hope this helps

Rashmi
