Floak: Document necessary pidfile step for openrc

[https://wiki.mumble.info/wiki/Running_Murmur Murmur] (also called Mumble-Server) is the server component for [https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Mumble Mumble]. Mumble is an open source, cross platform, low-latency, high quality voice over IP (VoIP) client. Mumble uses a client/server architecture and is primarily used by gamers, but can be used for any VoIP purpose.

== Installation ==
First of all we need Murmur in our server.
{{Cmd|apk add murmur}}

=== Setting up SSL certificates ===
If you already have used Certbot to set up certificates in your web server, then you can easily make a new certificate for a subdomain 'mumble' and add the cert paths to the mumble.ini configuration file. You can use vim and edit the file manually.
{{Cmd|vim /etc/murmur.ini}}
It should look something like this.
{{Cat|/etc/murmur.ini|<nowiki>
sslCert=/etc/letsencrypt/live/your_domain.com/fullchain.pem
sslKey=/etc/letsencrypt/live/your_domain.com/privkey.pem
</nowiki>
}}

== Running as a service ==

=== Configuration ===
Make sure this line is present in your murmur.ini:
{{Cat|/etc/murmur.ini|<nowiki>
pidfile=/var/run/murmur/murmur.pid
</nowiki>
}}
This will allow OpenRC to track the status of the process.

=== Starting up the service ===
Start the Murmur service.
{{Cmd|rc-service murmur start}}
You can add the Murmur service to the default runlevel.
{{Cmd|rc-update add murmur default}}
In case you don't want Murmur to be default on runlevel, rollback with this command
{{Cmd|rc-update delete murmur default}}
