Configuration

All the possible default configurations for client and server are located in ClientDft.py and DaemonDft.py respectively. Users are not supposed to modify configurations in these files. Under UNIX platforms, personal configuration options are in $HOME/.actimrc and $HOME/.actimdrc for client and server. Any option specified in .actimrc and .actimdrc will override the configuration values in the ClientDft.py and DaemonDft.py files. For Window platforms, these go to $ACTIM/actim.ini and $ACTIM/actimd.ini.

Actim uses ConfigParser module in python to parse configuration files. All the configuration options must be presented under the, $[$DEFAULT$]$ section and options are in name and value pairs. ie
