allow to ping

only needed if config has nodes.ping_count > 0

sudo setcap cap_net_raw=+ep  /opt/go/bin/yanic

Install

cp /opt/go/src/github.com/FreifunkBremen/yanic/contrib/init/linux-systemd/yanic.service /lib/systemd/system/yanic.service
systemctl daemon-reload

Before start, you should configure yanic by the file /etc/yanic.conf:

systemctl start yanic

Enable to start on boot:

systemctl enable yanic

Update

For an update just stop yanic and then call the same go command again (again as root):

systemctl stop yanic
go get -v -u github.com/FreifunkBremen/yanic

Then update the config file, for example look at the diff with the new example:

diff /opt/go/src/github.com/FreifunkBremen/yanic/config_example.toml /etc/yanic.conf
