Yep, either way works. Using screen is like a poor mans service, so to speak. I use it in that way for other things too. I was using WeewWX with an SDR (software defined radio) with an acurite for a while and it would only work that way. On Sunday, February 24, 2019 at 1:42:22 PM UTC-6,

Thank you. Another question that I would like to ask: Is there any downside just adding (executing) the sudo ./bin/weewxd weewx.conf script to the /etc/rc.locatl file? So my WeeWx installation gets started everytime on startup of my system. In the Docs this instruction is given: cd
