Keep reading, and don't panic. + +***** Quick guide to the most common configuration options ***** + +This subsection describes only a handful of rpki.conf configuration options. +These are the ones you'll need to set, or at least check, as part of initial +installation. In general, the installation process will have already set sane +values for these, but you may need to a few of them depending on exactly what +you're doing. + +The location of rpki.conf varies depending on the operating system you're +running and how you installed the software. Unless you did something unusual +during installation, it's either /etc/rpki.conf or /usr/local/etc/rpki.conf. + +All of the configuration options you're most likely to need to change are in +the ![myrpki] section of rpki.conf, which is discussed in much greater detail +elsewhere. + +* You need to check the setting of rpkid_server_host.
