Hi Expert, everytime I open Putty, discourse ask for configuration initial data.  
Like email’s admin, and smtp mail and so on,  
how can turn it of?

Did you use the official Discourse install method or some other one, like the troublesome and unsupported Bitnami one?

That’s not our [official install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true) method, that’s something Digital Ocean put together. It’s not entirely terrible, but it does have its… quirks, like you’re finding. You’d be best off asking Digital Ocean support what’s going on. I believe hitting Ctrl-C will drop you out of the questionnaire, but I’ve never tried it myself.

Yes, the official way is better. If you have a forum with content already, then you should back it up first, to restore on the new install.
