Fix an error in README.Debian where we say /etc/default/echolot when we mean
/etc/init.d/echolot.
1 weasel 237 Echolot for Debian
2     ------------------
3    
4 weasel 241 Make sure mail to the Echolot pinger reaches /var/mail/echolot (or configure
5 weasel 334 echolot to read it from any other location). Please really check that mail to
6     the configured domain works. Any bounces will annoy dozends of remailer
7     operators.

9     To send commands to pingd it's best to use the /etc/init.d/echolot script.
10     It takes care that pingd is only called as the correct user. See pingd(1) for a
11     list of commands and their description.
12    
13 weasel 334 If you run this pinger please consider publishing the results so that other
14     people benefit from it. Announcing the URL to the remailer operators' list
15     <remops@freedom.gmsociety.org>, the alt.privacy.anon-server Usenet newsgroup
16     and sending a mail to pingers@palfrader.org would be apprechiated.
17 weasel 237
18 weasel 334 Since many users installed Echolot without considering its implications the
19     default setup is now to no longer start the pingd in the default installation.
20     To actually enable it please modify /etc/default/echolot.
21    
22 weasel 670 If you want to run a pinger, please configure /etc/echolot/pingd.conf and
23     /etc/default/echolot. Then start echolot using /etc/init.d/echolot start
24 weasel 716 and add some addresses to it: /etc/init.d/echolot add remailer@example.com.
