 ## Creating the Conduit configuration file
 
-Now we need to create the Conduit's config file in `/etc/matrix-conduit/conduit.toml`. Paste this in **and take a moment

+Now we need to create the Conduit's config file in
+`/etc/matrix-conduit/conduit.toml`. Paste in the contents of
+[`conduit-example.toml`](./conduit-example.toml) **and take a moment to read it.
+You need to change at least the server name.**
 You can also choose to use a different database backend, but right now only `rocksdb` and `sqlite` are recommended.
 
-```toml
-[global]
-# The server_name is the pretty name of this server. It is used as a suffix for user
-# and room ids. Examples: matrix.org, conduit.rs
-
-# The Conduit server needs all /_matrix/ requests to be reachable at
-# https://your.server.name/ on port 443 (client-server) and 8448 (federation).
-
-# If that's not possible for you, you can create /.well-known files to redirect
-# requests. See
-# https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/latest#get-well-known-matrix-client
-# and
-# https://matrix.org/docs/spec/server_server/r0.1.4#get-well-known-matrix-server

-# The port Conduit will be running on. You need to set up a reverse proxy in
-# your web server (e.g. apache or nginx), so all requests to /_matrix on port
-# 443 and 8448 will be forwarded to the Conduit instance running on this port
-# Docker users: Don't change this, you'll need to map an external port to this.
-port = 6167

 ## Setting the correct file permissions
 
 As we are using a Conduit specific user we need to allow it to read the config. To do that you can run this command on
