renterd is designed to be run as a background service to store and retrieve data on the Sia network. This guide will walk you through the process of installing and configuring renterd on a Linux machine. Linux is the recommended operating system for running renterd because of its stability. We recommend using a Debian-based distribution, such as Ubuntu or Debian, but renterd should work on any modern Linux distribution. The setup guides in these docs are primarily focused on installing using apt, but renterd can also be installed as a binary manually or run in a Docker container.
