-****** Running rpkid or pubd on a different server ******
-
-The default configuration runs rpkid, pubd (if enabled) and the back end code
-all on the same server. For many purposes, this is fine, but in some cases you
-might want to split these functions up among different servers.
-
-As noted briefly above, there are two separate sets of rpki.conf options which
-control the necessary behavior: the run_* options and the start_* options. The
-latter are usually tied to the former, but you can set them separately, and
-they control slightly different things: the run_* options control whether the
-back end code attempts to manage the servers in question, while the start_*
-flags control whether the startup scripts should start the servers in question.
-
-Here's a guideline to how to set up the servers on different machines. For
-purposes of this description we'll assume that you're running both rpkid and
-pubd, and that you want rpkid and pubd each on their own server, separate from
-the back end code. We'll call these servers rpkid.example.org,
-pubd.example.org, and backend.example.org.
-
-Most of the configuration is the same as in the normal case, but there are a
-few extra steps. The following supplements but does not replace the normal
-instructions.
-
-WARNING: These setup directions have not (yet) been tested extensively.
-
-* Create rpki.conf as usual on backend.example.org, but pay particular
-  attention to the settings of rpkid_server_host, irbe_server_host, and
-  pubd_server_host: these should name rpkid.example.org, backend.example.org,
-  and pubd.example.org, respectively.
-
-* This example assumes that you're running pubd, so make sure that both
-  run_rpkid and run_pubd are enabled in rpki.conf.
-
-* Copy the rpki.conf to the other machines, and customize each copy to that
-  machine's role:
-
-  o start_rpkid should be enabled on rpkid.example.org and disabled on the
-    others.
-  o start_pubd should be enabled on pubd.example.org and disabled on the
-    others.
-  o start_irdbd should be enabled on backend.example.org and disabled on the
-    others.
-
-* Make sure that you set up SQL databases on all three servers; the rpki-sql-
-  setup script should do the right thing in each case based on the setting of
-  the start_* options.
-
-* Run "rpkic initialize" on the back end host. This will create the BPKI and
-  write out all of the necessary keys and certificates.
-
-* "rpkic initialize" should have created the BPKI files (.cer, .key, and .crl
-  files for the several servers). Copy the .cer and .crl files to the pubd and
-  rpkid hosts, along with the appropriate private key: rpkid.example.org should
-  get a copy of the rpkid.key file but not the pubd.key file, while
-  pubd.example.org should get a copy of the pubd.key file but not the rpkid.key
-  file.
-
-* Run rpki-start-servers on each of the three hosts when it's time to start the
-  servers.
-
-* Do the usual setup dance, but keep in mind that the the back end controlling
-  all of these servers lives on backend.example.org, so that's where you issue
-  the rpkic or GUI commands to manage them. rpkic and the GUI both know how to
-  talk to rpkid and pubd over the network, so managing them remotely is fine.
