NAME

   "razor-agent.conf" - Configuration file for Razor Agents

DESCRIPTION

   "razor-agent.conf" is a configuration file read by the razor agents,
   which include razor-check(1), razor-admin(1), razor-report(1), and
   razor-revoke(1). The format is "attribute = value" pairs, one pair per
   line. Lines that begin with `#' are treated as comments.

ATTRIBUTES

   Following attributes can be specified:

   razorhome
       Directory where Razor Agents look for files.  All files in
       "razor-agent.conf" without a full path will be relative to
       "razorhome".  The default is "/etc/razor/" for root, and
       "~/.razor/" for every other user.  If "razorhome" does not exist,
       it will be created.

   logfile
       Log file for the Razor Agents.  The default is "razor-agent.log".

   debuglevel
       Controls the amount of messages written to logfile.  It is an
       integer between 0 and 20.  For Example, a value of 1 logs only
       startup and error messages, 5 includes every transaction with the
       server, and 14 is extremely verbose information intended for
       debugging use only.  NOTE: 15 and higher create debug files on your
       filesystem -- do not use unless you know what you are doing.  The
       default is 5.

   identity
       Specify an identify file to use for storing a newly registered
       identity during razor-admin(1).  For razor-report(1) and
       razor-revoke(1), use this identity when authenticating with Razor
       Servers.  If not specified, "<razorhome>/identity-<user>" is used.

   listfile_nomination
       File where Razor Nomination Servers are listed, in order of closest
       TCP ping time.  Nomination Servers are used by razor-report(1) and
       razor-revoke(1).  This file is created automatically.  The default
       is "servers.nomination.lst".

   listfile_catalogue
       File where Razor Catalogue Servers are listed, in order of closest
       TCP ping time.  Catalogue Servers are used by razor-check(1).  This
       file is created automatically.  The default is
       "servers.catalogue.lst".

   listfile_discovery
       File where Razor Discovery Servers are listed, in random order.
       This file is created automatically using DNS.  The default is
       "servers.discovery.lst".

   rediscovery_wait_dns
       Max time in seconds Razor Agents will wait before computing a new
       "listfile_discovery" using DNS.  The default is 604800, which is 7
       days.

   rediscovery_wait
       Max time in seconds Razor Agents will wait before computing a new
       "listfile_nomination" and a new "listfile_catalogue".  The default
       is 172800, which is 2 days.

   turn_off_discovery
       Turns off closest host discovery.  When set to 1,
       "listfile_catalogue" and "listfile_nomination" will not be updated
       and "listfile_discovery" is not read or updated.  The default is 0.

   ignorelist
       Automatically ignore mailing list posts.  If set to 0, mailing list
       posts will be handled like all other mail.  The default is 0.

   whitelist
       Name of whitelist file. Razor Agents can consult a whitelist of
       addresses and SHA1 hashes before checking a mail with Razor
       Servers.  If the address/hash is found on the whitelist, the mail
       is marked `not spam', without checking against the server. The
       format of the whitelist can be found in razor-whitelist(5) manpage.
       The default is "razor-whitelist".

   min_cf
       When checking spam, the server optionally returns a spam confidence
       value ranging from 0 (not confident) to 100 (absolutely or 100%
       confident).  To be considered spam, the server's spam confidence
       value must be greater than or equal to "min_cf".  "min_cf" can be a
       number or an expression containing ac, the average confidence
       published by a Razor Server.  Examples: 0, 60, 100, ac, ac + 10, ac
       - 20.  If an expression evaluates to less than 0 it becomes 0,
       likewise those greater than 100 become 100.  The default is "ac".

   report_headers
       When reporting spam, the entire email (headers and body) is sent to
       a Razor Nomination Server.  When set to 0, all the headers are
       removed except headers beginning with "Content-" before sending,
       and a special header beginning with "X-Razor2" is added to note
       this action.  The default is 1.
