Palace Configurations 

and Settings

This section lists the keywords in your 

pserver.conf 

and 

pserver.prefs

 file. These 

keywords determine the configuration and preferences for your Palace.

The Palace configuration file

Your Palace server configuration settings are stored in the 

PalaceServerroot/palace/

psdata/pserver.conf 

file. Use this file to configure your server settings. All 

comments must have a semicolon (;) in the first column and all keywords must be 

UPPERCASE. All explicit strings must be within double quotes, as noted in the 

following keyword listing.

It's a good idea to make a backup copy of 

pserver.conf

, before making any changes 

to it. 

NOTE   

The Palace installation sets the values for these keywords. Generally, you do 

not have to edit this file unless you require a special setting.

You can customize e the following keywords:

SERIALNUMBER "

registrationcode

"

Your Palace server possesses a unique registration code used to identify the features 

and number of users your Palace server supports. This keyword is required to register 

your server with The Palace Directory. 

LOGFILE "

filename

"

This is the base name of the log file used by this server. The actual file name will be 

logfilename.YYMMDD

 and a new file will be started every calendar day. This resides in 

your 

/logs

 directory. Default value is 

logs/pserver.log

.
