DESCRIPTION

       The  epn.conf  configuration  file  is  used  to  set the options for the ipa-epn tool to notify users of
       upcoming password expiration.

SYNTAX

       The configuration options are not case sensitive. The values may be  case  sensitive,  depending  on  the
       option.

       Blank lines are ignored.  Lines beginning with # are comments and are ignored.

       Valid  lines  consist  of  an option name, an equals sign and a value. Spaces surrounding equals sign are
       ignored. An option terminates at the end of a line.

       Values should not be quoted, the quotes will not be stripped.

           # Wrong - don't include quotes
           verbose = "True"

           # Right - Properly formatted options
           verbose = True
           verbose=True

       Options must appear in the section named [global]. There are no other sections defined or used currently.

       Options may be defined that are not used by IPA. Be careful of misspellings, they will not be rejected.
