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

    <para>
      The options are:
    </para>

    <variablelist>
      <varlistentry>
	<term><literal><varname>interface</varname></literal></term>
	<listitem>
	  <para>
	    This option allows you to override the default network
	    interfaces. By default mandos will not bind to any
	    specific interface but instead use default avahi-server
	    behaviour.
	  </para>
	</listitem>
      </varlistentry>

      <varlistentry>
	<term><literal><varname>address</varname></literal></term>
	<listitem>
	  <para>
	    This option allows you to override the default network
	    address. By default mandos will not bind to any
	    specific address but instead use default avahi-server
	    behaviour.
	  </para>
	</listitem>
      </varlistentry>      

      <varlistentry>
	<term><literal><varname>port</varname></literal></term>
	<listitem>
	  <para>
	    This option allows you to override the default port to
	    listen on. By default mandos will not specify any specific
	    port and instead use a random port given by the OS from
	    the use of INADDR_ANY.
	  </para>
	</listitem>
      </varlistentry>

      <varlistentry>
	<term><literal><varname>debug</varname></literal></term>
	<listitem>
	  <para>
	    This option allows you to modify debug mode with a true/false
	    boolean value. By default is debug set to <literal>false</literal>.
	  </para>
	</listitem>
      </varlistentry>      

      <varlistentry>
	<term><literal><varname>priority</varname></literal></term>
	<listitem>
	  <para>
	    This option allows you to override the default gnutls
	    priority that will be used in gnutls session. See
	    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>gnutls_priority_init
	    </refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>for
	    more information on gnutls priority strings.

      </varlistentry>

      <varlistentry>
	<term><literal><varname>servicename</varname></literal></term>
	<listitem>
	  <para>
	    This option allows you to override the default Zeroconf
	    service name use to announce mandos as a avahi service. By
	    default mandos will use "Mandos".
