Configuration File Settings

The server configuration file (server.cfg) controls both the basic and the optional features of RealServer.

There are six groups of settings in the server.cfg file:

  • General
  • Network
  • Ad Insertion
  • Authentication
  • Live Broadcasting
  • Multicasting
  • Each group controls a different aspect or feature of your server. Some features require a license in order to be enabled. Detailed descriptions these groups follow.

    Because the server file is crucial to the operation of the RealServer, be sure to place it in a location that is inaccessible to any unauthorized users.
