On FreeBSD, copy the startup script and update rc.conf:
```
-$ sudo cp /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/freebsd/peertube /usr/local/etc/rc.d/
-$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/peertube
-$ sudo echo peertube_enable="YES" >> /etc/rc.conf
+$ sudo install -m 0555 /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest/support/freebsd/peertube /usr/local/etc/rc.d/
+$ sudo sysrc peertube_enable="YES"
```
Run:
$ cd /var/www/peertube/peertube-latest && NODE_CONFIG_DIR=/var/www/peertube/config NODE_ENV=production npm run reset-password -- -u root
```
+Alternatively you can set the environment variable `PT_INITIAL_ROOT_PASSWORD`,
+to your own administrator password, although it must be 6 characters or more.
