NAME

       GeoIP.conf - Configuration file for geoipupdate

SYNOPSIS

       This file allows you to configure your geoipupdate program to download GeoIP2, GeoLite2, and GeoIP Legacy
       databases.

DESCRIPTION

       The file consists of one setting per line.  Lines starting with # are comments and will not be processed.
       All setting keywords are case sensitive.

   Required settings:
       EditionIDs
              List  of  database  edition  IDs.   Edition  IDs may consist of letters, digits, and dashes (e.g.,
              “GeoIP2-City”, “106”).  Note: this was formerly called ProductIds.

   Optional settings:
       AccountID
              Your MaxMind account ID.  This was formerly known as UserId.

       DatabaseDirectory
              The directory to store the database files.  If not set, the default is /var/lib/GeoIP.   This  can
              be overridden at run time by the -d command line argument.

       Host   The host name of the server to use.  The default is updates.maxmind.com.

       Proxy  The   proxy  host  name  or  IP  address.   You  may  optionally  specify  a  port  number,  e.g.,
              127.0.0.1:8888.  If no port number is specified, 1080 will be used.

       ProxyUserPassword
              The proxy user name and password, separated by a colon.  For instance, username:password.

       PreserveFileTimes
              Whether to preserve modification times of files downloaded from the server.  This option is either
              0 or 1.  The default is 0.

       LicenseKey
              Your case-sensitive MaxMind license key.

       LockFile
              The lock file to use.  This ensures only one geoipupdate process can run at a  time.   Note:  Once
              created, this lockfile is not removed from the filesystem.  The default is .geoipupdate.lock under
              the DatabaseDirectory.

       The following are deprecated and will be ignored if present:
