Setting Options via Configuration Files

In addition to setting options from the Desktop UI, you can also set options in several configuration files. Options that you set from the Desktop UI will override the option settings from the configuration files. The option settings from the configuration files are used if they are not overridden using the Desktop UI. Option settings in the configuration files may apply to all users or only to a specific user, and they may apply to all hosts or only to specific hosts. There are four levels, listed below from most specific (highest precedence) to most general (lowest precedence):

• host dependent user options (apply to the specified user on the specified host only)

• host independent user options (apply to the specified user on all hosts)

• host dependent default options (apply to all users on the specified host)

• installation default (default for all users on all hosts)

A setting at any level will override settings at lower levels in the list above. If there is no setting in any file, then the application default value will be used.
