Liberally distributed configuration.

Start with everything under /etc for global configuration.

Then users have their own configuration in their own special places, start with $HOME.

An application's configuration can be, literally, anywhere.

Some applications have configuration in shell script style files, some in WIN.INI style files, some in XML, some in X resource files, others in other typically text file formats.

In the case of Solaris and many traditional UNIXes, start with "/etc/inittab".

In the case of NetBSD and similar start with "/etc/rc"
