##Instructions for Debian

The following commands are to be executed as root:

  1. In tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon file change:
  • CFG to where your config file (conf) will be; read rights required
  • DAEMON to point to the executable
  • PIDFILE to point to a pid file daemon would have rights to create
  1. Go over everything in conf. Make sure pid_file_path matches PIDFILE from tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon

  2. Execute:

mv tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon /etc/init.d/tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon
  1. Give the right permissions to this file:
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon
  1. Execute:
update-rc.d tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon defaults
  1. Start the service:

  2. Make sure that PIDFILE from /etc/init.d/tox-dht-bootstrap-server-daemon matches with the pid_file_path from conf

  3. Make sure you have write premmision to keys and pid files
