Having to manually start the > user services after each login sounds unnecessarily painful ;-). In Alpine Linux it is common practice in order to start a service automatically at boot time you do the following: sudo rc-update add yourservice On a per-user basis I experimented with coupling it with the login process. But there is a trade-off. It is then decoupled from service management which has the advantage to calculate and manage service dependencies. The service manager OpenRC can help for example in complex scenarios like restarting all gnunet system services, which automatically triggers restarting all gnunet user services in order. So I decided for the latter. Best, xrs
