+**Warning**: If you use REST API with user and password assigned in the config file, you probably don't want anyone else but the file owner to see your user/password in the file. Secure it with::
+
+    chmod 600 /path/to/config
 
 **Note**: You can omit options in the config file if you want to use the defaults, but you can not have more than the allowed parameters present, otherwise an exception will abort the updater.
