Not exactly related, but I run an unraid game server for friends and use a lot of the preconstructed docker apps for games.

Most of them come with the server name preset and the server password preset.

I've jumped into many a "private" server called Docker-GAMENAME with the password still set to "Docker"

I think it was some XMPP related server I ran quite a few years ago which had 'i_have_read_the_manual = 0' or something similar buried into default configuration file. And it would just silently exit if that variable was not set properly.

Maybe we need more things like that.

Would’ve used that debug log to scold the end-user. “If you’ve actually read the first 3 lines of the documentation you wouldn’t be seeing this.”

It's in a textbook, and that's a trusted source!
