The server configuration file is named a_srvcfg. On UNIX servers, it is located in /etc by default. On Windows NT or Windows 2000 servers, it is located in \etc on the disk device that AcuServer is installed on. If the file is given another name, or located in another directory, the full location and name of the file must be specified with the "-c" option when you start AcuServer. See the "-start" option in section 5.2.8 acuserve -start.
There are several server configuration variables. They are:
