NAME

       dacs_conf - display DACS configuration directives

SYNOPSIS

       dacs_conf [dacsoptions[1]]

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of the DACS suite.

       The dacs_conf web service processes and displays DACS configuration files (see dacs.conf(5)[2]).

       If XML output is selected, a document conforming to dacs_conf_reply.dtd[3] is returned.

       Although the order in which clauses appear in configuration files can be important, the order of configuration directives is for the most
       part not significant. The exception is the EVAL[4] directive. These directives are listed in the order in which they would be evaluated,
       and their unevaluated values appear in the output.

	   Note
	   This program is also available as a DACS utility, dacsconf(1)[5]. Because dacs_admin(8)[6] provides the same functionality and more,
	   dacs_conf may be removed in a future release.

	   Security
	   Because the configuration might reveal information that could be taken advantage of by an attacker, only the DACS administrator should
	   be able to run this command. Accordingly, a DACS ACL restricts use of this web service to a DACS administrator.

OPTIONS

   Web Service Arguments
       In addition to the standard CGI arguments[7], dacs_conf understands the following CGI arguments:

       DIRECTIVE
	   This optional, repeatable argument is a comma-separated list of directive names or variable references to be displayed. This is similar
	   to the directive-name arguments to dacsconf(1)[5].

	   An example of a directive name is JURISDICTION_NAME. An example of a variable reference is ${Conf::jurisdiction_name:i}.

       VARS
	   If the value of this optional argument is "yes", the effect on output formatting is the same as when the -vars flag is give to
	   dacsconf(1)[5]. The default value is "no".

FILES

       conf.css[8]

DIAGNOSTICS

       The program exits 0 if everything was fine, 1 if an error occurred.
