 It is best to create a dedicated system user and group for Gogios to ensure proper isolation and security. The process of creating a user and group may vary depending on the operating system you're using. Here are the steps to create the `gogios` user and group under OpenBSD:
 
 ```
-doas groupadd gogios
-doas useradd -g gogios -d /nonexistent -s /sbin/nologin -r gogios
-```

-Please note that the process of creating a user and group might differ depending on the operating system you are using. For other operating systems, consult their documentation for creating system users and groups.

-To set up the `StateDir` correctly with the correct permissions, follow these steps:

-```
+doas adduser -group _gogios -batch _gogios
+doas usermod -d /var/run/gogios _gogios
 doas mkdir -p /var/run/gogios

 Gogios relies on external Nagios or Icinga monitoring plugin scripts. On OpenBSD, you can install the `monitoring-plugins` package to use with Gogios. The monitoring-plugins package is a collection of monitoring plugins, similar to Nagios plugins, that can be used to monitor various services and resources:

 To run Gogios via CRON on OpenBSD as the `gogios` user and check all services once per minute, follow these steps:
 
-Type `doas crontab -e -u gogios` and press Enter to open the crontab file for the `gogios` user for editing and add the following line to the crontab file:
