Example:

Startup Notes

To enable the operation of Dr.Web Security Space, the component must run as a daemon. Under normal conditions, Dr.Web ConfigD starts automatically at the startup of the operating system; for this purpose the component is supplied with the drweb-configd management script located in a system directory (/etc/init.d). To manage the operation of the component, use the Dr.Web Ctl tool designed to manage Dr.Web Security Space from the command line (the tool is run with the drweb-ctl command).

To get documentation for this component from the command line, run the man 1 drweb-configd command.
