+Installing Orthanc as a Debian/Ubuntu daemon
+============================================
+
+To install Orthanc as a Linux daemon on a Debian/Ubuntu system, you can:
+
+1. Download this `service script
+   <http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-med/orthanc.git/tree/debian/orthanc.init>`_
+   (this file is part of the `official Debian package
+   <https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/orthanc>`_ of Orthanc),
+2. Adapt some of its variables to reflect the configuration of your
+   system,
+3. Copy it in ``/etc/init.d`` as root (the filename cannot contain
+   dot, otherwise it is not executed), make it belong to root, and tag
+   it as executable::
+
+    $ sudo mv orthanc.init /etc/init.d/orthanc
+    $ sudo chown root:root /etc/init.d/orthanc
+    $ sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/orthanc
+
+4. If you wish the daemon to be automatically launched at boot time and stopped at shutdown::
+
+    $ sudo update-rc.d orthanc defaults
+
+5. If you wish to remove the automatic launching at boot time later on::
+
+    $ sudo update-rc.d -f orthanc remove
+
+*Note*: You can use ``rcconf`` to easily monitor the services that are
+run at startup::
+
+    $ sudo apt-get install rcconf
