<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
60
The file &CONFPATH; is a simple configuration file for
61
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>mandos</refentrytitle>
62
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>, and is read by it at
63
startup. The configuration file starts with <quote><literal
64
>[DEFAULT]</literal></quote> on a line by itself, followed by
65
any number of <quote><varname><replaceable>option</replaceable
66
></varname>=<replaceable>value</replaceable></quote> entries,
67
with continuations in the style of RFC 822. <quote><varname
68
><replaceable>option</replaceable></varname>: <replaceable
69
>value</replaceable></quote> is also accepted. Note that
70
leading whitespace is removed from values. Lines beginning with
71
<quote>#</quote> or <quote>;</quote> are ignored and may be used
77
<title>OPTIONS</title>
83
The file &CONFPATH; is a simple configuration file for mandos
84
and is looked on at startup of the service. The configuration
85
file must start with <literal>[server]</literal>. The format for
86
the rest is a simple VAR = VALUE pair. Values may not be empty.

<term><literal>interface</literal></term>
98
This option allows you to override the default network
99
interfaces. By default mandos will not bind to any
100
specific interface but instead use default avahi-server
107
<term><literal>address</literal></term>
110
This option allows you to override the default network
111
address. By default mandos will not bind to any
112
specific address but instead use default avahi-server
119
<term><literal>port</literal></term>
122
This option allows you to override the default port to
123
listen on. By default mandos will not specify any specific
124
port and instead use a random port given by the OS from
125
the use of INADDR_ANY.
131
<term><literal>debug</literal></term>
134
This option allows you to modify debug mode with a true/false
135
boolean value. By default is debug set to <literal>false</literal>.
141
<term><literal>priority</literal></term>
144
This option allows you to override the default gnutls
145
priority that will be used in gnutls session. See
146
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>gnutls_priority_init
147
</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>for
148
more information on gnutls priority strings.
154
<term><literal>servicename</literal></term>
157
This option allows you to override the default Zeroconf
158
service name use to announce mandos as a avahi service. By
159
default mandos will use "Mandos".
