The file &CONFPATH; is a simple configuration file for
83
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>mandos</refentrytitle>
84
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>, and is read by it at
85
startup. The configuration file starts with <quote><literal
86
>[DEFAULT]</literal></quote> on a line by itself, followed by
87
any number of <quote><varname><replaceable>option</replaceable
88
></varname>=<replaceable>value</replaceable></quote> entries,
89
with continuations in the style of RFC 822. <quote><varname
90
><replaceable>option</replaceable></varname>: <replaceable
91
>value</replaceable></quote> is also accepted. Note that
92
leading whitespace is removed from values. Lines beginning with
93
<quote>#</quote> or <quote>;</quote> are ignored and may be used
