+##Placing configuration elsewhere
+
+By default, `srnd.ini` must be placed in the working directory (wherever you have the `srndv2` binary). If you want to place the `srnd.ini` config file elsewhere, you can define an environment varialbe in the `~/.profile` for the user that runs `srndv2`. 
+
+If you would like to use, for example, `/etc/nntpchan/my_srnd_config.ini`, simply add `export SRND_INI_PATH=/etc/nntpchan/my_srnd_config.ini` to `~/.profile`.
