In order for the node to be automatically launched at computer startup, execute the command:
sudo systemctl enable duniter.service
By default, the server will start as `duniter` user in the directory `/var/lib/duniter`.
You can customize the service behavior using [drop-ins][drop-ins](https://coreos.com/os/docs/latest/using-systemd-drop-in-units.html). For example, in order to start with web interface, you can create a file named `/etc/systemd/system/duniter.service.d/10-web.conf` with the following content:
[Service]
Environment="DUNITER_WEB=web"
Adjustable environment variables for this service are:
| Variable | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| `DUNITER_WEB` | Must be empty for classical startup, or _web_ to start the web interface |
| `DUNITER_HOME` | Server file location, default: `/var/lib/duniter/.config/duniter` |
| `DUNITER_DATA` | Name (location) of the database, default: `duniter_default` |

## Automatic startup
> Automatic startup is only available on _server_ versions.
Since version 1.6.15, automatic statup scripts are delivered for distribution based on _Systemd_ or _OpenRC_.
In order for the node to be automatically launched at computer startup, execute the following command with administrator rights (`sudo`):
* for _Systemd_:
systemctl enable duniter.service
* for _OpenRC_:
rc-update add duniter default
By default, the server will start as `duniter` user in the directory `/var/lib/duniter`.
You can customize the service behavior:
* for _Systemd_, using [drop-ins](https://coreos.com/os/docs/latest/using-systemd-drop-in-units.html) — for example, in order to start with web interface, you can create a file named `/etc/systemd/system/duniter.service.d/10-web.conf` with the following content:
[Service]
Environment="DUNITER_WEB=web"
* for _OpenRC_, by modifying the `/etc/conf.d/duniter` file.
Adjustable environment variables for this service are:
| Variable | Type | Description |
|----------|------|-------------|
| `DUNITER_WEB` | _Systemd_ | Must be empty for classical startup, or _web_ to start the web interface |
| `DUNITER_WEB` | _OpenRC_ | Start web interface if the value is defined an evaluate to true (`yes`, for example) |
