 # How to run this as a systemd deamon
 
-The files in this directory assume that you install the Golang version of ClusterCockpit to `/var/clustercockpit`. If you do not like that, you can choose any other location, but make sure to replace all paths that begin with `/var/clustercockpit` in the `clustercockpit.service` file!
+The files in this directory assume that you install ClusterCockpit to `/opt/monitoring`.
+Of course you can choose any other location, but make sure to replace all paths that begin with `/opt/monitoring` in the `clustercockpit.service` file!
 
 If you have not installed [yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/getting-started/install) and [go](https://go.dev/doc/install) already, do that (Golang is available in most package managers).
+It is recommended and easy to install the most recent stable version of Golang as every version also improves the Golang standard library.
 
-The `config.json` can have the optional fields *user* and *group*. If provided, the application will call [setuid](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/setuid.2.html) and [setgid](https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/setgid.2.html) after having read the config file and having bound to a TCP port (so that it can take a privileged port), but before it starts accepting any connections. This is good for security, but means that the directories `frontend/public`, `var/` and `templates/` must be readable by that user and `var/` writable as well (All paths relative to the repos root). The `.env` and `config.json` files might contain secrets and should not be readable by that user. If those files are changed, the server has to be restarted.
