The daemon expects to find its configuration in /etc/rwchcd.conf, unless specified differently on the command line. Example configurations are provided in filecfg/examples. rwchcd -h provides information about the (very few) available command line parameters.

A systemd service file is provided that will be installed when running make install if DBus is available. The daemon will be started at next reboot unless manually started with systemctl start rwchcd.service
