NAME

       dacsconf - display configuration directives

SYNOPSIS

       dacsconf [dacsoptions[1]] [-vars] [directive-name...]

       dacsconf [-item_types]

DESCRIPTION

       This program is part of the DACS suite.

       The dacsconf utility processes DACS configuration files (see dacs.conf(5)[2]) and outputs
       to stdout the values of directives or variable references currently in effect for the
       specified jurisdiction.

       Although the order in which clauses appear in configuration files can be important, the
       order of configuration directives is for the most part not significant. The exception is
       the EVAL[3] directive. These directives are listed in the order in which they would be
       evaluated, and their unevaluated values appear in the output.

       This program is also available as a DACS web service, dacs_conf(8)[4].

           Security
           Because the configuration might reveal information that could be taken advantage of by
           an attacker, only the DACS administrator should be able to run this command.

OPTIONS

       -item_types
           List the names of all predefined item types. The presence of a name does not imply
           that DACS has been configured to use the item type.

       -vars
           By default, directives that appear within a clause (e.g., <Auth> or <Roles>) are
           emitted in the context of that clause. This option "flattens" the output by emitting
           it in the form of DACS variables.

           For example, the STYLE directive in an Auth section having an id of foo will appear as
           AUTH.FOO.STYLE in the output.

           All variables in the Conf namespace are displayed, including those set by EVAL.

       directive-name
           One or more directive names or variable references may be provided to limit the
           output. It is not an error if a directive-name is not defined.

FILES

       conf.css[5]

DIAGNOSTICS

       The program exits 0 if everything was fine, 1 if an error occurred. Error messages are
       printed to stderr.
