start page other than Latest News Boxes

How is the home/start page section set? If I have base url scoop.sitename.org established the site opens with Latest News and some inclusive/super set of stories (but different from All Stories aka section/___all___).

This is not advantagous if one does not wish every user to immediately see some sections (eg Diaries). So what I would like is to enter the site at http://scoop.sitename.org and first see what is now http://scoop.sitename.org/section/___all___.

section_title block appears to set "Latest News" as the default. None of the story blocks appear to trap for this default or "no section" value state.

Forgive my ignorance, but any suggestions are most welcome.
Tim

In "Display Preferences", each user can choose which section they want to start with when they request just the domain.

I don't know if there's a way to set the default view, the way there is with comments, though.
