Server Parameters

---

This appendix lists and describes all tunable parameters available to configure your calendar server. All parameters listed are located in the initialization file /users/unison/misc/unison.ini.

Each parameter's stated default value is used if that parameter is omitted from its configuration file. These defaults are not necessarily the optimal settings for your installation. The initialization files supplied with the software contain settings that provide a good starting point for further configuration. It is strongly recommended that for reference purposes you keep a copy, in either printed or electronic format, of these files before modification.

Configuration parameters

The types of behaviour that can be modified fall under the following sections:

• Controlling server behaviour
• Controlling server interactions with directory server
• Controlling client behaviour
• Controlling client connections to server

The following table lists all parameters alphabetically by section.
