the ip-address for "smw" is optionally added at the start of "run" to your /etc/hosts file.

The imagehostname is now set to your hostname by default assuming a linux environment. So replace "smw" with your own hostname e.g. if you run on www.example.com the result will be available at http://www.example.com/mediawiki

The run script has three modes

• initially it runs the container to start mysql / apache
