9 <P>The <VAR>/etc/cups/cupsd.conf</VAR> file contains
10 configuration <I>directives</I> that control how the server
11 functions. Each directive is listed on a line by itself followed
12 by its value. Comments are introduced using the number sign ("#")
13 character at the beginning of a line.</P>

15 <P>Since the server configuration file consists of plain text,
16 you can use your favorite text editor to make changes to it.
17 After making any changes, restart the <CODE>cupsd(8)</CODE>
18 process using the startup script for your operating system:</P>

1187 <P>File devices are managed by the scheduler. Since the
1188 scheduler normally runs as the root user, file devices
1189 can be used to overwrite system files and potentially
1190 gain unauthorized access to the system. If you must
1191 create printers using file devices, we recommend that
1192 you set the <CODE>FileDevice</CODE> directive to
1193 <CODE>Yes</CODE> for only as long as you need to add the
1194 printers to the system, and then reset the directive to
1195 <CODE>No</CODE>.</P>

1212 <P>The <CODE>FilterLimit</CODE> directive sets the maximum cost

1216 limiting.</P>
1217
1218 <P>An average print to a non-PostScript printer needs a filter
1219 limit of about 200. A PostScript printer needs about half that
1220 (100). Setting the limit below these thresholds will effectively
1221 limit the scheduler to printing a single job at any time.</P>

1762 <P>The <CODE>ListenBackLog</CODE> directive sets the maximum
1763 number of pending connections the scheduler will allow. This
1764 normally only affects very busy servers that have reached the <A
1765 HREF="#MaxClients"><CODE>MaxClients</CODE></A> limit, but can
1766 also be triggered by large numbers of simultaneous connections.
1767 When the limit is reached, the operating system will refuse
1768 additional connections until the scheduler can accept the pending
1769 ones. The default is the OS-defined default limit, typically
1770 either 5 for older operating systems or 128 for newer operating
1771 systems.</P>

2853
2854 <P>The <CODE>UseNetworkDefault</CODE> directive controls whether
2855 the client will use a network/remote printer as a default
2856 printer. If enabled, the default printer of a server is used as
2857 the default printer on a client. When multiple servers are
2858 advertising a default printer, the client's default printer is
2859 set to the first discovered printer, or to the implicit class for
2860 the same printer available from multiple servers.</P>
2861
2862 <P>The default is <CODE>@CUPS_USE_NETWORK_DEFAULT@</CODE>.</P>
