1. As others mentioned, call the script `server.js` and then have people do:
npm install -g hahnserver npm start -g hahnserver (You can also specify a stop script. For bonus points, run the actual listening server as a detached child process, pipe stdio to a log file, and write the pid somewhere. Have the stop script kill the child via the pid.) 2. I'd try to have the package include a "generate a new self-signed key" script, and run that on server startup if it's not already there.
