 The default config file [`oragono.yaml`](oragono.yaml) helps walk you through what each option means and changes. The configuration's intended to be sparse, so if there are options missing it's either because that feature isn't written/configurable yet or because we don't think it should be configurable.
 
+You can use the `--conf` parameter when launching Oragono to control where it looks for the config file. For instance: `oragono run --conf /path/to/ircd.yaml`. The configuration file also stores where the log, database, certificate, and other files are opened. Normally, all these files use relative paths, but you can change them to be absolute (such as `/var/log/ircd.log`) when running Oragono as a service.

 ### Logs
 
 By default, logs are stored in the file `ircd.log`. The configuration format of logs is designed to be easily pluggable, and is inspired by the logging config provided by InspIRCd.

-### Configuration
-
-* Locations where oragono will read/write files can be configured in the `ircd.yaml` file. (**Note:** this applies to multiple options like database location and certificates as well)
-
-For example, to change the logging destination edit `ircd.yaml` and change this line:
-```
-    filename: ircd.log
-```
-
-To this:
-```
-    filename: /var/log/ircd.log
-```
-
-* When using oragono the `--conf` option can be used to change which/where the configuration file is read from.
-
-For example:
-```
-oragono run --conf /path/to/ircd.yaml
-```
