  <para>
    There are several configuration parameters that affect the
    behavior of the replication system.  In this section, we describe
    how to set the <application>slon</application> daemon's
    configuration parameters; the following subsections discuss each
    parameter in detail.
  </para>

  <para>
    All parameter names are case-insensitive. Every parameter takes a value of 
    one of four types: boolean, integer, floating point, or string.
    Boolean values may be written as <literal>ON</literal>, <literal>OFF</literal>,<literal>TRUE</literal>,
    <literal>FALSE</literal>, <literal>YES</literal>, <literal>NO</literal>, 
    <literal>1</literal>, <literal>0</literal> (all case-insensitive) or any 
    unambiguous prefix of these.
  </para>

  <para>
    One parameter is specified per line. The equal sign between name and 
    value is optional. Whitespace is insignificant and blank lines are
    ignored. Hash marks (<literal>#</literal>) introduce comments
    anywhere.  Parameter values that are not simple identifiers or
    numbers must be single-quoted.
  </para>

  <para>
    Some options may be set through the Command-line, these options
    override any conflicting settings in the configuration file.

          so it would be undesirable for this timeout value to be set
