Description:
I just started the tutorial and it is not helpful. They say to 'test connection' near the very beginning to make sure it works. Well mine doesn't work. I put in localhost for the hostname as well as the default ip. What am I supposed to do if it doesn't connect?

How to repeat:
Take the tutorial using my computer with all settings and operating system and users and information from my machine during the exact time and place which I am performing the tutorial.

Suggested fix:
Make sure the tutorial works for the set of situations including mine.
