+# Stale bot information
+
+- Thanks for your contribution!
+- To remove the stale label, just leave a new comment.
+- _How to find the right people to ping?_ &rarr; [`git blame`](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-blame) to the rescue! (or GitHub's history and blame buttons.)
+- You can always ask for help on [our Discourse Forum](https://discourse.nixos.org/) or on [Matrix - #nix:nixos.org](https://matrix.to/#/#nix:nixos.org).
+
+## Suggestions for PRs
+
+1. GitHub sometimes doesn't notify people who commented / reviewed a PR previously, when you (force) push commits. If you have addressed the reviews you can [officially ask for a review](https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/requesting-a-pull-request-review) from those who commented to you or anyone else.
+2. If it is unfinished but you plan to finish it, please mark it as a draft.
+3. If you don't expect to work on it any time soon, closing it with a short comment may encourage someone else to pick up your work.
+4. To get things rolling again, rebase the PR against the target branch and address valid comments.
+5. If you need a review to move forward, ask in [the Discourse thread for PRs that need help](https://discourse.nixos.org/t/prs-in-distress/3604).
+6. If all you need is a merge, check the git history to find and [request reviews](https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/requesting-a-pull-request-review) from people who usually merge related contributions.
+
+## Suggestions for issues
+
+1. If it is resolved (either for you personally, or in general), please consider closing it.
+2. If this might still be an issue, but you are not interested in promoting its resolution, please consider closing it while encouraging others to take over and reopen an issue if they care enough.
+3. If you still have interest in resolving it, try to ping somebody who you believe might have an interest in the topic. Consider discussing the problem in [our Discourse Forum](https://discourse.nixos.org/).
+4. As with all open source projects, your best option is to submit a Pull Request that addresses this issue. We :heart: this attitude!
+
+**Memorandum on closing issues**
+
+Don't be afraid to close an issue that holds valuable information. Closed issues stay in the system for people to search, read, cross-reference, or even reopen--nothing is lost! Closing obsolete issues is an important way to help maintainers focus their time and effort.

-
-Nix allows derivations to set `allowSubstitutes = false` in order to force them to be built locally without querying substituters for them.
-This is useful for derivations that are very fast to build (especially if they produce large output).
-However, this can shoot you in the foot if the derivation *has* to be substituted such as if the derivation is for another architecture, which is what `--always-allow-substitutes` is for.
-
-Perhaps such derivations that are known to be impossible to build locally should ignore `allowSubstitutes` (irrespective of remote builders) in the future, but this at least reports the failure and solution directly.
-
-```
-$ nix build -f fail.nix
-error: a 'unicornsandrainbows-linux' with features {} is required to build '/nix/store/...-meow.drv', but I am a 'x86_64-linux' with features {...}
-
-       Hint: the failing derivation has allowSubstitutes set to false, forcing it to be built rather than substituted.
-       Passing --always-allow-substitutes to force substitution may resolve this failure if the path is available in a substituter.

+
+Previously, if an element of a list or attribute set threw an error while
+evaluating, `nix repl` would print the entire error (including source location
+information) inline. This output was clumsy and difficult to parse:
+
+```
+nix-repl> { err = builtins.throw "uh oh!"; }

+
+Now, only the error message is displayed, making the output much more readable.
+```
+nix-repl> { err = builtins.throw "uh oh!"; }
+{ err = «error: uh oh!»; }
+```
+
+However, if the whole expression being evaluated throws an error, source

-
-A system for deprecation (and then the planned removal) of undesired language features has been put into place.
-It is controlled via feature flags much like experimental features, except that the deprecations are enabled default,
-and can be disabled via the flags for backwards compatibility (opt-out with `--extra-deprecated-features` or the Nix configuration file).
-
- `url-literals`: **URL literals** have long been obsolete and discouraged of use, and now they are officially deprecated.
-  This means that all URLs must be properly put within quotes like all other strings.
- `rec-set-overrides`: **__overrides** is an old arcane syntax which has not been in use for more than a decade.
-  It is soft-deprecated with a warning only, with the plan to turn that into an error in a future release.
- `ancient-let`: **The old `let` syntax** (`let { body = …; … }`) is soft-deprecated with a warning as well. Use the regular `let … in` instead.

-Support for building Lix with [`readline`][readline] instead of
-[`editline`][editline] has been removed. `readline` support hasn't worked for a
-long time (attempting to use it would lead to build errors) and would make Lix
-subject to the GPL if it did work. In the future, we're hoping to replace
-`editline` with [`rustyline`][rustyline] for improved ergonomics in the `nix
-repl`.

+Using `:doc` in the REPL now supports showing documentation comments when defined on a function.

+
+This support is experimental and relies on an embedded version of [nix-doc](https://github.com/lf-/nix-doc).
+
+The logic also supports limited Markdown formatting of doccomments and should easily support any [RFC 145](https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/blob/master/rfcs/0145-doc-strings.md)

+In the past, it was possible to supply a shorter `-E` flag instead of fully

+be evaluated to produce the given command's input. This was retained for the
+`--file` flag when the new CLI utilities were written with `-f`, but `-E` was

-This section describes the notion of *deprecated features*, and how it fits into the big picture of the development of Lix.
-
-# What are deprecated features?
-
-Deprecated features are disabled by default, with the intent to eventually remove them.
-Users must explicitly enable them to keep using them, by toggling the associated [deprecated feature flags](@docroot@/command-ref/conf-file.md#conf-deprecated-features).
-This allows backwards compatibility and a graceful transition away from undesired features.
-
-# Which features can be deprecated?
-
-Undesired features should be soft-deprecated by yielding a warning when used for a significant amount of time before the can be deprecated.
-Legacy obsolete feature with little to no usage may go through this process faster.
-Deprecated features should have a migration path to a preferred alternative.
-
-# Lifecycle of a deprecated feature
-
-This description is not normative, but a feature removal may roughly happen like this:
-
-1. Add a warning when the feature is being used.
-2. Disable the feature by default, putting it behind a deprecated feature flag.
-  - If disabling the feature started out as an opt-in experimental feature, turn that experimental flag into a no-op or remove it entirely.
-    For example, `--extra-experimental-features=no-url-literals` becomes `--extra-deprecated-features=url-literals`.
-3. Decide on a time frame for how long that feature will still be supported for backwards compatibility, and clearly communicate that in the error messages.
-  - Sometimes, automatic migration to alternatives is possible, and such should be provided if possible
-  - At least one NixOS release cycle should be the minimum
-4. Finally remove the feature entirely, only keeping the error message for those still using it.
-
-# Relation to language versioning
-
-Obviously, removing anything breaks backwards compatibility.
-In an ideal world, we'd have SemVer controls over the language and its features, cleanly allowing us to make breaking changes.
-See https://wiki.lix.systems/books/lix-contributors/page/language-versioning and [RFC 137](https://github.com/nixos/rfcs/pull/137) for efforts on that.
-However, we do not live in such an ideal world, and currently this goal is so far away, that "just disable it with some back-compat for a couple of years" is the most realistic solution, especially for comparatively minor changes.

-When adding credits metadata for people external to the project and deciding whether to put in a `display_name`, consider what they are generally known as in the community; even if you know their full name (e.g. from their GitHub profile), we suggest only adding it as a display name if that is what they go by in the community.
-There are multiple reasons we follow this practice, but it boils down to privacy and consent: we would rather not capture full names that are not widely used in the community without the consent of the parties involved, even if they are publicly available.
-As of this writing, the entries with full names as `display_name` are either members of the CppNix team or people who added them themselves.
-
-The names specified in `credits` are used as keys to look up the authorship info in `doc/manual/change-authors.yml`.
-The only mandatory part is that every key appearing in `credits` has an entry present in `change-authors.yml`.
-All of the following properties are optional; you can specify `{}` as the metadata if you want a simple non-hyperlinked mention.
-The following properties are supported:
-
- `display_name`: display name used in place of the key when showing names, if present.
- `forgejo`: Forgejo username. The name in the release notes will be a link to this, if present.
- `github`: GitHub username, used if `forgejo` is not set, again making a link.

-## Magic environment variables
-
-FIXME: maybe this section should be moved elsewhere or turned partially into user docs, but I just need a complete index for now.
-I actually want to ban people calling getenv without writing documentation, and produce a comprehensive list of env-vars used by Lix and enforce it.
-
-This is a non-exhaustive list of almost all environment variables, magic or not, accepted or used by various parts of the test suite as well as Lix itself.
-Please add more if you find them.
-
-I looked for these in the testsuite with the following bad regexes:
-
-```
-rg '(?:[^A-Za-z]|^)(_[A-Z][^-\[ }/:");$(]+)' -r '$1' --no-filename --only-matching tests | sort -u > vars.txt
-rg '\$\{?([A-Z][^-\[ }/:");]+)' -r '$1' --no-filename --only-matching tests | sort -u > vars.txt
-```
-
-I grepped `src/` for `get[eE]nv\("` to find the mentions in Lix code.
-
-### Used by Lix testing support code
-
- `_NIX_TEST_ACCEPT` (optional) - Writes out the result of a characterization test as the new expected value.
-  **Expected value**: 1
-
- `_NIX_TEST_UNIT_DATA` - The path to the directory for the data for a given unit test suite.
-
-  **Expected value**: `tests/unit/libstore/data/libstore` or similar
-
-
-### Used by Lix
-
- `_NIX_FORCE_HTTP` - Forces file URIs to be treated as remote ones.
-
-  Used by `src/libfetchers/git.cc`, `src/libstore/http-binary-cache-store.cc`,
-  `src/libstore/local-binary-cache-store.cc`. Seems to be for forcing Git
-  clones of `git+file://` URLs, making the HTTP binary
-  cache store accept `file://` URLs (presumably passing them to curl?), and
-  unknown reasons for the local binary cache.
-
-  FIXME(jade): is this obscuring a bug in https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/200?
-
-  **Expected value**: 1
- `NIX_ATTRS_SH_FILE`, `NIX_ATTRS_JSON_FILE` (output) - Set by Lix builders; see
-  `structuredAttrs` documentation.
- `NIX_BIN_DIR`, `NIX_STORE_DIR` (or its inconsistently-used old alias `NIX_STORE`), `NIX_DATA_DIR`,
-  `NIX_LOG_DIR`, `NIX_LOG_DIR`, `NIX_STATE_DIR`, `NIX_CONF_DIR` -
-  Overrides compile-time configuration of various locations used by Lix. See `src/libstore/globals.cc`.
-
-  **Expected value**: a directory
- `NIX_DAEMON_SOCKET_PATH` (optional) - Overrides the daemon socket path from `$NIX_STATE_DIR/daemon-socket/socket`.
-
-  **Expected value**: path to a socket
- `NIX_LOG_FD` (output) - An FD number for logs in `internal-json` format to be sent to.
-  Used for, mostly, "setPhase" in nixpkgs setup.sh, but can also be creatively used to print verbose log messages from derivations.
-
-  **Provided value**: number corresponding to an FD in the builder
- `NIX_PATH` - Search path for `<whatever>`. Documented elsewhere in the manual.
-
-  **Expected value**: `:` separated list of things that are not necessarily pointing to filesystem paths
- `NIX_REMOTE` - The default value of the Lix setting `store`.
-
-  **Expected value**: "daemon", usually. Could be "auto" or any other value acceptable in `store`.
- `NIX_BUILD_SHELL` - Documented elsewhere; the shell to invoke with `nix-shell` but not `nix develop`/`nix shell`.
-  The latter ignoring it altogether seems like a bug.
-
-  **Expected value**: the path to an executable shell
- `PRINT_PATH` - Undocumented. Used by `nix-prefetch-url` as an alternative form of `--print-path`. Why???
- `_NIX_IN_TEST` - If present with any value, makes `fetchClosure` accept file URLs in addition to HTTP ones. Why is this not `_NIX_FORCE_HTTP`??
-
-  Not used anywhere else.
- `NIX_ALLOW_EVAL` - Used by eval-cache tests to block evaluation if set to `0`.
-
-  **Expected value**: 1 or 0
- `EDITOR` - Used by `editorFor()`, which has some extremely sketchy editor-detection code for jumping to line numbers.
- `LISTEN_FDS` and `LISTEN_PID` - Used for systemd socket activation using the systemd socket activation protocol.
- `NIX_PAGER` (alternatively, `PAGER`) - Used to select a pager for Lix output. Why does this not use libutil `getEnv()`?
- `LESS` (output) - Sets the pager settings for `less` when invoked by Lix.
- `NIX_IGNORE_SYMLINK_STORE` - When set, Lix allows the store to be a symlink. Why do we support this?
-
-  Apparently [someone was using it enough to fix it](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/4038).
- `NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE` (alternatively, `SSL_CERT_FILE`) - Used to set CA certificates for libcurl.
-
-  **Expected value**: "/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt" or similar
- `NIX_REMOTE_SYSTEMS` - Used to set `builders`. Can we please deprecate this?
- `NIX_USER_CONF_FILES` - `:` separated list of config files to load before
-  `/nix/nix.conf` under each of `XDG_CONFIG_DIRS`.
- `NIX_CONFIG` - Newline separated configuration to load into Lix.
- `NIX_GET_COMPLETIONS` - Returns completions.
-  Unsure of the exact format, someone should document it; either way my shell never had any completions.
-
-  **Expected value**: number of completions to return.
- `IN_SYSTEMD` - Used to switch the logging format so that systemd gets the correct log levels. I think.
- `NIX_HELD_LOCKS` - Not used, what is this for?? We should surely remove it right after searching github?
- `GC_INITIAL_HEAP_SIZE` - Used to set the initial heap size, processed by boehmgc.
- `NIX_COUNT_CALLS` - Documented elsewhere; prints call counts for profiling purposes.
- `NIX_SHOW_STATS` - Documented elsewhere; prints various evaluation statistics like function calls, gc info, and similar.
- `NIX_SHOW_STATS_PATH` - Writes those statistics into a file at the given path instead of stdout. Undocumented.
- `NIX_SHOW_SYMBOLS` - Dumps the symbol table into the show-stats json output.
- `TERM` - If `dumb` or unset, disables ANSI colour output.
- `FORCE_COLOR`, `CLICOLOR_FORCE` - Enables ANSI colour output if `NO_COLOR`/`NOCOLOR` not set.
- `NO_COLOR`, `NOCOLOR` - Disables ANSI colour output.
- `_NIX_DEVELOPER_SHOW_UNKNOWN_LOCATIONS` - Highlights unknown locations in errors.
- `NIX_PROFILE` - Selects which profile `nix-env` will operate on. Documented elsewhere.
- `NIX_SSHOPTS` - Options passed to `ssh(1)` when using a ssh remote store.
-  Incorrectly documented on `nix-copy-closure` which is *surely* not the only place they are used??
- `_NIX_TEST_GC_SYNC_1` - Path to a pipe that is used to block the GC briefly to validate invariants from the test suite.
- `_NIX_TEST_GC_SYNC_2` - Path to a pipe that is used to block the GC briefly to validate invariants from the test suite.
- `_NIX_TEST_FREE_SPACE_FILE` - Path to a file containing a decimal number with the free space that the GC is to believe it has.
- Various XDG vars
- `NIX_DEBUG_SQLITE_TRACES` - Dump all sqlite queries to the log at `notice` level.
- `_NIX_TEST_NO_SANDBOX` - Disables actually setting up the sandbox on macOS while leaving other logic the same. Unused on other platforms.
- `_NIX_TRACE_BUILT_OUTPUTS` - Dumps all the derivation paths alongside their outputs as lines into a file of the given name.
-
-### Used by the functional test framework
-
- `NIX_DAEMON_PACKAGE` - Runs the test suite against an alternate Nix daemon with the current client.

-
-  **Expected value**: 1
- `TEST_DATA` - Not an environment variable! This is used in repl characterization tests to refer to `tests/functional/repl_characterization/data`.
-  More specifically, that path is replaced with the string `$TEST_DATA` in output for reproducibility.
- `TEST_HOME` (output) - Set to the temporary directory that is set as `$HOME` inside the tests, underneath `$TEST_ROOT`.
- `TEST_ROOT` (output) - Set to the temporary directory that is created for each test to mess with.
- `_NIX_TEST_DAEMON_PID` (output) - Used to track the daemon pid to be able to kill it.
-
-  **Provided value**: Daemon pid as a base-10 integer, e.g. 2345

 # Multi-User Mode

-To allow a Nix store to be shared safely among multiple users, it is important that users cannot meaningfully influence the execution of derivation builds such that they could inject malicious code into them without changing their (either input- or output- addressed) hash.
-If they could do so, they could install a Trojan horse in some package and compromise the accounts of other users.

+important that users are not able to run builders that modify the Nix
+store or database in arbitrary ways, or that interfere with builds
+started by other users. If they could do so, they could install a Trojan
+horse in some package and compromise the accounts of other users.

-To prevent this, the Nix store and database are owned by some privileged user (usually `root`) and builders are executed under unprivileged system user accounts (usually named `nixbld1`, `nixbld2`, etc.).
-When an unprivileged user runs a Nix command, actions that operate on the Nix store (such as builds) are forwarded to a *Nix daemon* running under the owner of the Nix store/database that performs the operation.

-
-## Trust model
-
-There are two categories of users of the Lix daemon: trusted users and untrusted users.
-The Lix daemon only allows connections from users that are either trusted users, or are specified in, or are members of groups specified in, [`allowed-users`](../command-ref/conf-file.md#conf-allowed-users) in `nix.conf`.
-Trusted users are users and users of groups specified in [`trusted-users`](../command-ref/conf-file.md#conf-trusted-users) in `nix.conf`.
-
-All users of the Lix daemon may do the following to bring things into the Nix store:
-
- Users may load derivations and output-addressed files into the store with `nix-store --add` or through Nix language code.
- Users may locally build derivations, either of the output-addressed or input-addressed variety, creating output paths.
-
-  Note that [fixed-output derivations only consider name and hash](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/969), so it is possible to write a fixed-output derivation for something important with a bogus hash and have it resolve to something else already built in the store.
-
-  On systems with `sandbox` enabled (default on Linux; [not *yet* on macOS][sandbox-enable-macos]), derivations are either:
-    - Input-addressed, so they are run in the sandbox with no network access, with the following exceptions:
-
-      - The (poorly named, since it is not *just* about chroot) property `__noChroot` is set on the derivation and `sandbox` is set to `relaxed`.
-      - On macOS, the derivation property `__darwinAllowLocalNetworking` allows network access to localhost from input-addressed derivations regardless of the `sandbox` setting value.
-        This property exists with such semantics because macOS has no network namespace equivalent to isolate individual processes' localhost networking.
-      - On macOS, the derivation property `__sandboxProfile` accepts extra sandbox profile S-expressions, allowing derivations to bypass arbitrary parts of the sandbox without altogether disabling it.
-        This is only permitted when `sandbox` is set to `relaxed`.
-    - Output-addressed, so they are run with network access but their result must match an expected hash.
-
-  Trusted users may set any setting, including `sandbox = false`, so the sandbox state can be different at runtime from what is described in `nix.conf` for builds invoked with such settings.
- Users may copy appropriately-signed derivation outputs into the store.
-
-  By default, any paths *copied into a store* (such as by substitution) must have signatures from [`trusted-public-keys`](../command-ref/conf-file.md#conf-trusted-public-keys) unless they are [output-addressed](../glossary.md#gloss-output-addressed-store-object).
-
-  Unsigned paths may be copied into a store if [`require-sigs`](../command-ref/conf-file.md#conf-require-sigs) is disabled in the daemon's configuration (not default), or if the client is a trusted user and passed `--no-check-sigs` to `nix copy`.
- Users may request that the daemon substitutes appropriately-signed derivation outputs from a binary cache in the daemon's [`substituters`](../command-ref/conf-file.md#conf-substituters) list.
-
-  Untrusted clients may also specify additional values for `substituters` (via e.g. `--extra-substituters` on a Nix command) that are listed in [`trusted-substituters`](../command-ref/conf-file.md#conf-trusted-substituters).
-
-  A client could in principle substitute such paths itself then copy them to the daemon (see clause above) if they are appropriately signed but are *not* from a trusted substituter, however this is not implemented in the current Lix client to our knowledge, at the time of writing.
-  This probably means that `trusted-substituters` is a redundant setting except insofar as such substitution would have to be done on the client rather than as root on the daemon; and it is highly defensible to not allow random usage of our HTTP client running as root.

-
-### The Lix daemon as a security non-boundary
-
-The Lix team and wider community does not consider the Lix daemon to be a *security boundary* against malicious Nix language code.
-
-Although we do our best to make it secure, we do not recommend sharing a Lix daemon with potentially malicious users.
-That means that public continuous integration (CI) builds of untrusted Nix code should not share builders with CI that writes into a cache used by trusted infrastructure.
-
-For example, [hydra.nixos.org], which is the builder for [cache.nixos.org], does not execute untrusted Nix language code; a separate system, [ofborg] is used for CI of nixpkgs pull requests.
-The build output of pull request CI is never pushed to [cache.nixos.org], and those systems are considered entirely untrusted.
-
-This is because, among other things, the Lix sandbox is *more* susceptible to kernel exploits than Docker, which, unlike Lix, blocks nested user namespaces via `seccomp` in its default policy, and there have been many kernel bugs only exposed to unprivileged users via user namespaces allowing otherwise-root-only system calls.
-In general, the Lix sandbox is set up to be relatively unrestricted while maintaining its goals of building useful, reproducible software; security is not its primary goal.
-
-The Lix sandbox is a custom *non-rootless* Linux container implementation that has not been audited to nearly the same degree as Docker and similar systems.
-Also, the Lix daemon is a complex and historied C++ executable running as root with very little privilege separation.
-All of this means that a security hole in the Lix daemon gives immediate root access.
-Systems like Docker (especially non-rootless Docker) should *themselves* probably not be used in a multi-tenant manner with mutually distrusting tenants, but the Lix daemon *especially* should not be used as such as of this writing.
-
-The primary purpose of the sandbox is to strongly encourage packages to be reproducible, a goal which it is generally quite successful at.

-### Trusted users
-
-Trusted users are permitted to set any setting and bypass security restrictions on the daemon.
-They are currently in widespread use for a couple of reasons such as remote builds (which we [intend to fix](https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/171)).
-
-Trusted users are effectively root on Nix daemons running as root (the default configuration) for *at least* the following reasons, and should be thus thought of as equivalent to passwordless sudo.
-This is not a comprehensive list.
-
- They may copy an unsigned malicious built output into the store for `systemd` or anything else that will run as root, then when the system is upgraded, that path will be used from the local store rather than substituted.
- They may set the following settings that are commands the daemon will run as root:
-  - `build-hook`
-  - `diff-hook`
-  - `pre-build-hook`
-  - `post-build-hook`
- They may set `build-users-group`.
-
-  In particular, they may set it to empty string, which runs builds as root with respect to the rest of the system (!!).
-  We, too, [think that is absurd and intend to not accept such a configuration](https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/242).
-  It is then simply an exercise to the reader to find a daemon that does `SCM_CREDENTIALS` over a `unix(7)` socket and lets you run commands as root, and mount it into the sandbox with `extra-sandbox-paths`.
-
-  At the very least, the Lix daemon itself (since `root` is a trusted user by default) and probably `systemd` qualify for this.
- They may set the `builders` list, which will have ssh run as root.
-  We aren't sure if there is a way to abuse this for command execution but it's plausible.
-
-Note that setting `accept-flake-config` allows arbitrary Nix flakes to set Nix settings in the `nixConfig` stanza.
-Do not set this setting or pass `--accept-flake-config` while executing untrusted Nix language code as a trusted user for the reasons above!
-
-## Build users
+## Setting up the build users

 The *build users* are the special UIDs under which builds are performed.
-A build user is selected for a build by looking in the group specified by [`build-users-group`](../command-ref/conf-file.md#conf-build-users-group), by default, `nixbld`, then a member of that group not currently executing a build is selected for the build.
-The build users should not be members of any other group.
-
-There can never be more concurrent builds than the number of build users, unless using [`auto-allocate-uids`](../command-ref/conf-file.md#conf-auto-allocate-uids) ([tracking issue][auto-allocate-uids-issue]).
-
-[auto-allocate-uids-issue]: https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/387
-
-If, for some reason, you need to create such users manually, the following command will create 10 build users on Linux:
+They should all be members of the *build users group* `nixbld`. This
+group should have no other members. The build users should not be
+members of any other group. On Linux, you can create the group and users
+as follows:

 ```console
 $ groupadd -r nixbld
@ -127,12 +35,43 @@ $ for n in $(seq 1 10); do useradd -c "Nix build user $n" \
    nixbld$n; done
 ```

+This creates 10 build users. There can never be more concurrent builds
+than the number of build users, so you may want to increase this if you
+expect to do many builds at the same time.
+
 ## Running the daemon

-The [Nix daemon](../command-ref/nix-daemon.md) can be started manually as follows (as `root`):
+The [Nix daemon](../command-ref/nix-daemon.md) should be started as
+follows (as `root`):

 ```console
-# nix-daemon
+$ nix-daemon
 ```

-In standard installations of Lix, the daemon is started by a `systemd` unit (Linux) or `launchd` service (macOS).
+You’ll want to put that line somewhere in your system’s boot scripts.
+
+To let unprivileged users use the daemon, they should set the
+[`NIX_REMOTE` environment variable](../command-ref/env-common.md) to
+`daemon`. So you should put a line like
+
+```console
+export NIX_REMOTE=daemon
+```
+
+into the users’ login scripts.
+
+## Restricting access
+
+To limit which users can perform Nix operations, you can use the
+permissions on the directory `/nix/var/nix/daemon-socket`. For instance,
+if you want to restrict the use of Nix to the members of a group called
+`nix-users`, do
+
+```console
+$ chgrp nix-users /nix/var/nix/daemon-socket
+$ chmod ug=rwx,o= /nix/var/nix/daemon-socket
+```
+
+This way, users who are not in the `nix-users` group cannot connect to
+the Unix domain socket `/nix/var/nix/daemon-socket/socket`, so they
+cannot perform Nix operations.
