-===== Step 6: create a daemon and install it =====
+===== Step 6: create the system user telegramd =====
+In order to run the telegram-daemon as root, you will need to create the user telegramd. I've opted
+to create this user as a system user:
+<code>
+# useradd -M --user-group --system --shell=/bin/false telegramd
+</code>
+**And give permissions into /etc/telegram:**
+<code>
+chown telegramd:telegramd /etc/telegram/*
+</code>
+Impersonate this user and run the telegram-cli program again, to create a proper configuration file:
+<code>
+telegramd@:~$ /usr/local/share/telegram/telegram-cli -k /etc/telegram/tg-server.pub

+===== Step 7: create a daemon and install it =====
 Telegram-cli has a bug that provokes that, unless ''contact_list'' is the first command issued, no message can be sent through the program. Moreover, there is no way to create a program that just sends a message and ends: the program waits forever even if you run through a pipe. __A more simple version to make automatic notifications from a machine would be desirable.__
