How to give duplicati root permision on ubuntu

Hi, i’m confused by this. I tried it and it doesn’t start Duplicati at boot - it works perfectly well, until i reboot. It’s also using the TrayIcon which i would have thought would be unusual for an app run ‘as a service’. Does it work for the OP? Am i doing something wrong? I would have thought something else is needed, either a command configured to run at boot/login either through the UI or a config file somewhere.

EDIT - just found this:

Should it actually be:
$ sudo systemctl enable duplicati
or
$ sudo systemctl enable duplicati.service
…rather than “start”?

Either seems to work, not sure if there’s a difference :slight_smile:
