<h1>Configuration files</h1>
-Configuration files and directories are located in `/var/spool/freeside/conf'.
+Configuration file layout has changed in 1.2.x.
+<ul>
+ <li>First, the file `/usr/local/etc/freeside/mapsecrets' is read. Each line
+in this file contains a username and filename, separated by whitespace. Note
+that these are not local usernames - they are passed from Apache (you _did_
+setup <a href="http://www.apache.org/docs/misc/FAQ.html#user-authentication">
+user authetication</a>, correct?). Filenames are located in
+`/usr/local/etc/freeside/'. The specified filename is parsed exactly
+the same as the pre-1.2.x `secrets' file:
+ <li>Three lines: Database engine datasource (for example,
+ `DBI:mysql:freeside' or `DBI:Pg:dbname=freeside'), username, and password.
+ This file should not be world readable. See the DBI manpage and the manpage
+ for your DBD for the exact syntax.
+</ul>
+All further configuration files and directories are located in
+`/usr/local/etc/freeside/conf.<i>datasource</i>', for example,
+`/usr/local/etc/freeside/conf.DBI:Pg:dbname=freeside'
<ul>
<li>address - Your company name and address, four lines.
<li>bsdshellmachines - Your BSD flavored shell (and mail) machines, one per line. This enables export of `/etc/passwd' and `/etc/master.passwd'.
<li>registries/internic/to - Email address to which InterNIC domain registrations are sent.
</ul>
</ul>
- <li>secrets - Three lines: Database engine datasource (for example, `DBI:mysql:freeside' or `DBI:Pg:dbname=freeside'), username, and password. This file should not be world readable.
<li>sendmailmachines - Your sendmail machines, one per line. This enables export of `/etc/virtusertable' and `/etc/sendmail.cw'.
<li>shellmachine - A single machine with user home directories mounted. This enables home directory creation, renaming and archiving/deletion. In conjunction with `qmailmachines', it also enables `.qmail-extension' file maintenance.
<li>shellmachines - Your Linux and System V flavored shell (and mail) machines, one per line. This enables export of `/etc/passwd' and `/etc/shadow' files.
