+Security
+--------
+RPC credentials associated with a Client must match the permission set configured on the server Node.
+This refers to both authentication (username and password) and role-based authorisation (the set of flows an
+authenticated user is entitled to run).
+
+In the instructions above the server node permissions are configured programmatically in the driver code:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+        driver(driverDirectory = baseDirectory) {
+            val user = User("user", "password", permissions = setOf(startProtocolPermission<CashProtocol>()))
+            val node = startNode("Alice", rpcUsers = listOf(user)).get()
+
+When starting a standalone node using a configuration file we must supply the RPC credentials as follows:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+    rpcUsers : [
+        { user=user, password=password, permissions=[ StartFlow.net.corda.flows.CashFlow ] }
+    ]
+
+When using the gradle Cordformation plugin to configure and deploy a node you must supply the RPC credentials in a similar manner:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+        rpcUsers = [
+                ['user' : "user",
+                 'password' : "password",
+                 'permissions' : ["StartFlow.net.corda.flows.CashFlow"]]
+        ]
+
+You can then deploy and launch the nodes (Notary and Alice) as follows:
+
+1. Run ``./gradlew docs/source/example-code:deployNodes`` to create a set of configs and installs under ``docs/source/example-code/build/nodes``
+2. Run ``./docs/source/example-code/build/nodes/runnodes`` (or ``runnodes.bat`` on Windows) to open up two new terminals with the two nodes.
