Reference > Configuration files > Server
The configuration files are located in the folder conf/ residing in the SimpleCVS-folder.
General settings
| port |
TCP port to run the server on. Server uses TCP-sockets. |
| fork |
Allow forking (almost like threads). Specify 0 or no for running the server in single threaded mode. Set to 1 or yes to run the server in multithreaded mode. |
| identkey |
This should be a string of characters without any spaces. 8-100 character long, use only standard ASCII chars. This key is used to identify a client to see it is authorized to connect to the server. Must match the key specified in the clients config file. |
client.
friendly |
This switch decides wherethere to use the identkey authentification or not. |
Example setup:
#### GENERAL SETTINGS ##################
port: 4444
fork: yes
identkey: AVRYHZFFUEFG
client.friendly: 1
Daemon
| daemon.pidfile |
Filename (and path) where to save the PID file. the PID file holds the Process ID of the server started by the Daemon. This is used to shut down/stop the server. |
| daemon.out |
Filename (and path) where to output the log from the server. On unix, this can be set to /dev/null if you don't want any logging. If not set, /dev/null is assumed. This can be a problem on Win, so make sure to set it. Note that all important stuff is automatically logged to .log.cvs in the active projects directory on the server. |
Example setup:
#### DAEMON SETTINGS ####################
daemon.pidfile: ./srv-daemon.pid
daemon.out: /dev/null
Projects & users
project.
<projectname> |
Define a project, where <projectname> is the directory name and project name. The value of this variable should be an absolute path to the project directory, NOT followed by a "/". Or it can be a relative path, wich will be initialized from the SimpleCVS directory. |

user.joe.project: myproject
user.garry.pass: 321cba
