-It is possible to allow remote management of Reticulum
-systems using the various built-in utilities, such as
-``rnstatus`` and ``rnpath``. To do so, you will need to set
-the ``enable_remote_management`` directive in the ``[reticulum]``
-section of the configuration file. You will also need to specify
-one or more Reticulum Identity hashes for authenticating the
-queries from client programs. For this purpose, you can use
-existing identity files, or generate new ones with the rnid utility.
-
-The following is a truncated example of enabling remote management
-in the Reticulum configuration file:
-
-.. code:: text
-  
-  [reticulum]
-  ...
-  enable_remote_management = yes
-  remote_management_allowed = 9fb6d773498fb3feda407ed8ef2c3229, 2d882c5586e548d79b5af27bca1776dc
-  ...
-
-For a complete example configuration, you can run ``rnsd --exampleconfig``.

-Remote Management
------------------
-
-It is possible to allow remote management of Reticulum
-systems using the various built-in utilities, such as
-``rnstatus`` and ``rnpath``. To do so, you will need to set
-the ``enable_remote_management`` directive in the ``[reticulum]``
-section of the configuration file. You will also need to specify
-one or more Reticulum Identity hashes for authenticating the
-queries from client programs. For this purpose, you can use
-existing identity files, or generate new ones with the rnid utility.
-
-The following is a truncated example of enabling remote management
-in the Reticulum configuration file:
-
-.. code:: text
-  
-  [reticulum]
-  ...
-  enable_remote_management = yes
-  remote_management_allowed = 9fb6d773498fb3feda407ed8ef2c3229, 2d882c5586e548d79b5af27bca1776dc
-  ...
-
-For a complete example configuration, you can run ``rnsd --exampleconfig``.
