Each line is a name=value pair. Blank lines and lines beginning with # are ignored. For example:

  # My qpidd configuration file.
  port=6000
  max-connections=10
  log-to-stdout=yes
  log-to-file=/tmp/qpidd.log

[ENVIRONMENT]

The environment variable is the option name in uppercase, prefixed with QPID_ and '.' or '-' are replaced with '_'. Environment settings are over-ridden by command line settings. For example:

  export QPID_PORT=6000
  export QPID_MAX_CONNECTIONS=10
  export QPID_LOG_TO_FILE=/tmp/qpidd.log
