approx.conf - configuration file for approx proxy server SYNOPSIS
/etc/approx/approx.conf DESCRIPTION
Each non-blank line of the configuration file should contain a name/value pair, separated by white space. Comments start with a "#" char- acter and continue to the end of the line. Names that begin with the "$" character are reserved for use as configuration parameters. The following parameters are currently defined: $cache Specifies the location of the approx cache directory (default: /var/cache/approx). It and all its subdirectories must be owned by the approx server (see also the $user and $group parameters, below.) $interval Specifies the time in minutes after which a cached file will be considered too old to deliver without first checking with the remote repository for a newer version (default: 60) $max_rate Specifies the maximum download rate from remote repositories, in bytes per second (default: unlimited). The value may be suffixed with "K", "M", or "G" to indicate kilobytes, megabytes, or gigabytes per second, respectively. $max_redirects Specifies the maximum number of HTTP redirections that will be followed when downloading a remote file (default: 5) $user, $group Specifies the user and group that owns the files in the approx cache (default: approx) $syslog Specifies the syslog(3) facility to use when logging (default: daemon) $pdiffs Specifies whether to support IndexFile diffs (default: true) $offline Specifies whether to deliver (possibly out-of-date) cached files when they cannot be downloaded from remote repositories (default: false) $max_wait Specifies how many seconds an approx(8) process will wait for a concurrent download of a file to complete, before attempting to download the file itself (default: 10) $verbose Specifies whether informational messages should be printed in the log (default: false) $debug Specifies whether debugging messages should be printed in the log (default: false) The other name/value pairs are used to map distribution names to remote repositories. For example, debian http://ftp.debian.org/debian security http://security.debian.org TCP PORT NUMBER
The port on which approx(8) listens is not specified in this file, but in /etc/inetd.conf. The default value is 9999, for compatibility with apt-proxy(8), but it may be changed by running the command dpkg-reconfigure approx SEE ALSO

cups-files.conf - file and directory configuration file for cups DESCRIPTION
The cups-files.conf file configures the files and directories used by the CUPS scheduler, cupsd(8). It is normally located in the /etc/cups directory. Each line in the file can be a configuration directive, a blank line, or a comment. Comment lines start with the # character. DIRECTIVES
The following directives are understood by cupsd(8). Consult the on-line help for detailed descriptions: AccessLog filename AccessLog syslog Defines the access log filename. ConfigFilePerm mode Specifies the permissions for all configuration files that the scheduler writes. DataDir path Specified the directory where data files can be found. DocumentRoot directory Specifies the root directory for the internal web server documents. ErrorLog filename ErrorLog syslog Specifies the error log filename. FatalErrors none FatalErrors all -kind [... -kind] FatalErrors kind [... kind] Specifies which errors are fatal, causing the scheduler to exit. "Kind" is "browse", "config", "listen", "log", or "permissions". FileDevice Yes FileDevice No Specifies whether the file pseudo-device can be used for new printer queues. FontPath directory[:directory:...] Specifies the search path for fonts. Group group-name-or-number Specifies the group name or ID that will be used when executing external programs. LogFilePerm mode Specifies the permissions for all log files that the scheduler writes. PageLog filename PageLog syslog Specifies the page log filename. Printcap Printcap filename Specifies the filename for a printcap file that is updated automatically with a list of available printers (needed for legacy applica- tions); specifying Printcap with no filename disables printcap generation. RemoteRoot user-name Specifies the username that is associated with unauthenticated root accesses. RequestRoot directory Specifies the directory to store print jobs and other HTTP request data. ServerBin directory Specifies the directory where backends, CGIs, daemons, and filters may be found. ServerCertificate filename Specifies the encryption certificate to use. ServerKey filename Specifies the encryption key to use. ServerRoot directory Specifies the directory where the server configuration files can be found.
