ENVIRONMENT
QPID_<option>
There is an environment variable for each option.
The environment variable is the option name in uppercase, prefixed with QPID_ and '.' or
'-' are replaced with '_'. Environment settings are over-ridden by command line settings.
For example:
export QPID_PORT=6000
export QPID_MAX_CONNECTIONS=10
export QPID_LOG_TO_FILE=/tmp/qpidd.log
FILES
/etc/qpidd.conf
Default configuration file.
Configuration file settings are over-ridden by command line or environment variable
settings. '--config <file>' or 'export QPID_CONFIG=<file>' specifies an alternate file.
Each line is a name=value pair. Blank lines and lines beginning with # are ignored. For
