#
# CONFIGURATION NOTES
#
#    - The example settings in this file assume that you will run Tautulli as user: tautulli
#    - The example settings in this file assume that Tautulli is installed to: /opt/Tautulli
#
#    - To create this user and give it ownership of the Tautulli directory:
#       Ubuntu/Debian: sudo addgroup tautulli && sudo adduser --system --no-create-home tautulli --ingroup tautulli
#       CentOS/Fedora: sudo adduser --system --no-create-home tautulli
#       sudo chown tautulli:tautulli -R /opt/Tautulli
#
#    - Adjust ExecStart= to point to:
#       1. Your Tautulli executable
#          - Default: /opt/Tautulli/Tautulli.py
#       2. Your config file (recommended is to put it somewhere in /etc)
#          - Default: --config /opt/Tautulli/config.ini
#       3. Your datadir (recommended is to NOT put it in your Tautulli exec dir)
#          - Default: --datadir /opt/Tautulli
