+The Keepproxy server is a gateway into your Keep storage. Unlike the Keepstore servers, which are only accessible on the local LAN, Keepproxy is suitable for clients located elsewhere on the internet. Specifically, in contrast to Keepstore:
+* A client writing through Keepproxy generates less network traffic: the client sends a single copy of a data block, and Keepproxy sends copies to the appropriate Keepstore servers.
+* A client can write through Keepproxy without precomputing content hashes. Notably, the browser-based upload feature in Workbench requires Keepproxy.
+* Keepproxy checks API token validity before processing requests. (Clients that can connect directly to Keepstore can use it as scratch space even without a valid API token.)

 h3. Set up the Keepproxy service
 
-We recommend you run Keepproxy under "runit":http://smarden.org/runit/ or a similar supervisor.  Make sure the launcher sets the envirnoment variables @ARVADOS_API_TOKEN@ (with the token you just generated), @ARVADOS_API_HOST@, and, if needed, @ARVADOS_API_HOST_INSECURE@.  The core keepproxy command to run is:
+Install runit to supervise the keepproxy daemon.  {% include 'install_runit' %}
