+=== With a systemd unit file ===
+It is similar as the previous method, but instead of having a classic BSD-like init system (SysVinit, Upstart or OpenRC), your linux distribution comes with systemd.
+One big change is that now, you have the possibility to create a unit file instead of a starting shell script.
+
+For this, you can create a file into {{{/etc/systemd/system/sgserver.service}}} or {{{/usr/lib/systemd/system/sgserver.service}}} with this following content:
+{{{
+[Unit]
+Description=Smokin' Guns dedicated server
+
+[Service]
+User=user # account we created
+ExecStart=/home/user/sgserver/smokinguns_dedicated +set dedicated 2 +set net_port 27960 +set com_hunkmegs 128 +exec server.cfg
+Restart=on-abort
+
+[Install]
+WantedBy=multi-user.target
+}}}
+
+You can now use your server with the commands provided by systemd:
+
+start:
+{{{
+systemctl start sgserver.service
+}}}
+
+stop:
+{{{
+systemctl stop sgserver.service
+}}}
+
+If you need more commands, you can have a look at the [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd ArchLinux Wiki page].
