• code-server --version: 4.5.1

Steps to Reproduce

Good evening, I successfully managed to install code-server on my dedicated Ubuntu 22.04 LTS on port 8080 which I left free only for the first boot of code-server.

I followed the commands in your documentation for changing the port, but every time it resets and returns to 8080 even though I start it this way code-server --bind-addr localhost:3000 or this way PORT=3000 code-server or even editing the config file (where the password is saved). How can I make this change permanent?

Expected

It should start on the selected port

Actual

It always starts on the 8080 creating problems for other connections.
