NAME

afclient.conf - Configuration File for afclient

INTRODUCTION

Afclient supports several mechanisms to supply configuration and run-time parameters: command line options, afclient.conf and hard-coded defaults. When the same information is supplied in more than one way, the highest precedence mechanism is used. When configuration file is used (option: -f FILE) command line options like --reverseudp, --udpmode, --remoteadmin, --load, --Load and --pass are ignored. Options from configuration file are taken before values from command line (with the exception of --keyfile, --storefile, --dateformat, --ignorepkeys and the options connected with http proxy and auto-reconnect support). When something is not declared, hard-coded values are used.

DESCRIPTION

Afclient uses configuration file, which name is supplied by the -f FILE option. The afclient.conf file is the set of command-line like options, which can be written in any order.
