sed -i -e "/^\[p2p\]/,/^\[/{s/^[[:space:]]*seeds *=.*/seeds = \"$SEEDS\"/}" \
       -e "/^\[p2p\]/,/^\[/{s/^[[:space:]]*persistent_peers *=.*/persistent_peers = \"$PEERS\"/}" $HOME/.provenanced/config/config.toml
```

7. **Set up pruning (optional).**

```
sed -i -e "s/^pruning *=.*/pruning = \"custom\"/" $HOME/.provenanced/config/app.toml 
sed -i -e "s/^pruning-keep-recent *=.*/pruning-keep-recent = \"100\"/" $HOME/.provenanced/config/app.toml
sed -i -e "s/^pruning-interval *=.*/pruning-interval = \"10\"/" $HOME/.provenanced/config/app.toml
sed -i -e "s/^indexer *=.*/indexer = \"null\"/" $HOME/.provenanced/config/config.toml
```

9. **Create service file.**
