+The localhost httpd service on port 8080 serves the fallback content from `/var/www/htdocs/f3s_fallback/`. This directory contains a simple HTML page explaining the situation.
+
+The key configuration detail is using `request rewrite` to ensure the fallback page is served for ALL paths, not just the root. Without this, accessing paths like `/login?redirect=/files/` would return 404 instead of the fallback page:
```
# OpenBSD httpd.conf

server "f3s.foo.zone" {
listen on * port 8080

}
# ... similar blocks for all f3s hostnames ...
```
+The `request rewrite "/index.html"` directive ensures that whether someone accesses `/`, `/login`, `/api/status`, or any other path, they all receive the same fallback page. This prevents confusing 404 errors when users have bookmarked specific URLs or follow deep links while the cluster is down.
