--enable-maintainer_log              - This allows the maintainer to write
                                       additional large amount of debug
                                       log data to a log file. So this
                                       is only useful for the maintainer.

--enable-confirmation_log            - If you want to log all files names
                                       which need confirmation you have to
                                       enable this feature.

                                       will pose a performance penalty,
                                       especially if the log files are
                                       very large.

                                       output you have to enable this
                                       feature. But note that enabling this
                                       will pose a performance penalty,
                                       especially if the log files are
                                       very large.

--disable-delete_log                 - If enabled, all files names that are

                                       can then be viewed with show_dlog. But
                                       note that enabling this will pose a
                                       performance penalty, especially if
                                       lots of files get
                                       deleted.

                                       properly on some older systems (linux
                                       2.2.x and earlier) and cause severe
                                       problems. So disable this when AFD
                                       does not start or you have very
                                       strange problems.
                                       [Default: enabled]
--disable-verify_fsa                 - When enabled, every time something is
                                       written to the FSA, it is checked
                                       whether it is correct. If not enabled
                                       you might see some incorrect numbers
                                       in the 'afd_ctrl' dialog. Though this
                                       is very seldom and if it does happen
                                       can be corrected with fsa_edit.
                                       [Default: enabled]
--disable-ignore_duplicate_jobs      - Duplicate jobs are ignored by AFD when
                                       this job is set. I cannot think of a
                                       good reason why one wants to disable
                                       this.
                                       [Default: enabled]

                                       configuration it creates some default,
                                       so AFD does start.
                                       [Default: enabled]
--disable-afd_ctrl_proc_check        - By default the afd_ctrl dialog
                                       periodically checks if the process amg,
                                       fd, archive_watch and afdd are running.
                                       This check should be disabled on
                                       systems with shared filesystems
                                       and afd_ctrl being called from a node
                                       where AFD is not active.

--disable-fifo_rw_support            - Some systems do not support opening a
                                       FIFO for reading and writing. With
                                       this option set AFD will use two file
                                       descriptors one for reading and one
                                       for writing.
--disable-sse42                      - Disables SSE4.2 optimizations ie.

                                       To solve problems on distributions
                                       that still use openmotif provide
                                       this option to use the old name.

                                       This is only used when it fails lookup
                                       the IP from DNS.
--enable-ascii_only_subject          - Up to version 1.4.8-0.9.beta AFD
                                       accepted only 7 bit ASCII subjects
                                       for mail. Newer versions of AFD will
                                       encode the subject to base64 if it
                                       encounters a non 7 bit ASCII in the
                                       mail subject. So, setting this option
                                       will disable the automatic conversion
                                       and restore the original behaviour.
--enable-dfax_support                - Enable support for Divas Fax API

--enable-expand_path_in_message      - Enables expanding local relative path
                                       in message. Advantage of this option is
                                       that it will make AFD faster when it
                                       distributes files locally. Disadvantage
                                       is if a users home directory is changed
                                       it is not noticed by AFD, you then need
                                       to restart it.

                                       show_olog.  The setuid flag is required
                                       if other users want to monitor or

                                       busy. With this enabled it will make a
                                       short delay and then retry. This can be
                                       set when AFD is running on an NFS file-

                                       directories scanned by AFD is not
                                       updated correctly. Normally it is not

                                       multiple files. This reduces the
                                       number of sockets in TIME_WAIT
                                       considerably. However it is dangerous
                                       to enable this since it can lead
                                       to data being lost on systems with
                                       broken TCP-stack. Note on some
                                       systems (darwin) it can slowdown the
                                       system considerably.

--enable-no_auto_basic_auth          - Since HTTPS digest authentication
                                       is hardly used by servers, AFD does
                                       by default do a preemptive basic
                                       authentication which saves a
                                       request/challenge cycle. With
                                       this option the user can disable
                                       this.
--enable-group_can_write             - The permissions of the fifos will have
                                       write access to the fifos. This can be
                                       used to allow users of the same group
                                       have access to the AFD of another user.

--enable-lockdebug                   - All locks are logged to SYSTEM_LOG.
                                       This is only for debugging, so do not
                                       enable this.

--enable-sendfile_support            - Enables sendfile() support. This is
                                       more efficient then the usual
                                       combination of read() and write(),
                                       since copying is done within the
                                       kernel and no data needs to be
                                       copied from/to user space (zero copy).
                                       It has currently only been tested for
                                       linux.

--enable-splice_support              - Enables splice() support. When copying
                                       files the splice() system call is being
                                       used. splice() moves data between two
                                       file descriptors without copying
                                       between kernel address space and user
                                       address space.  splice() is only
                                       available for linux as of kernel 2.6.17
                                       (tested it only as of 2.6.23).

                                       makes it a bit faster when you have
                                       to make lots of connections, since it
                                       does not need to always look into the
                                       password database.

                                       used to edit X resources if you do not
                                       like the defaults.

                                       this. This should only be used on
