and then proceed as above :) If you connect to the raspberry pi over ssh, you might want to run the `saxi` server inside a tmux or screen session to have it stay running even if your ssh session disconnects.

If you want `saxi` to run at boot on the Pi you can use a systemd unit file and enable the service:

```bash
sudo tee /lib/systemd/system/saxi.service <<EOF
[Unit]
Description=Saxi
After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=saxi
Restart=always
User=pi

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
EOF
sudo systemctl enable saxi.service
```

To watch the logs while it is running, use:
```bash
journalctl -f -u saxi
```
