<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
64
The file &CONFPATH; is a simple configuration file for
65
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>mandos</refentrytitle>
66
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>, and is read by it at
67
startup. The configuration file starts with <quote><literal
68
>[DEFAULT]</literal></quote> on a line by itself, followed by
69
any number of <quote><varname><replaceable>option</replaceable
70
></varname>=<replaceable>value</replaceable></quote> entries,
71
with continuations in the style of RFC 822. <quote><varname
72
><replaceable>option</replaceable></varname>: <replaceable
73
>value</replaceable></quote> is also accepted. Note that
74
leading whitespace is removed from values. Lines beginning with
75
<quote>#</quote> or <quote>;</quote> are ignored and may be used
