NAME

pica-node.conf – pica-node configuration file

SYNOPSIS

/etc/pica-node.conf

DESCRIPTION

pica-node(8)

reads configuration data from
/etc/pica-node.conf

(or the
file specified with -f on the command line). The file has .INI file format.
All options must be contained in
[pica-node]

section. The possible options and their meanings are as follows:

announced_addr

Network address that can be used to reach this instance of pica-node.
Can be specified in form of DNS name or IP adress (Right now only IPv4
address format is supported. IPv6 and domain name support will be added in
future releases). If the computer running pica-node is behind the NAT, external

public address of NAT machine must be specified and port forwarding must be

configured. Default value is “autoconfigure” which makes pica-node try to guess

its external IP address. If pica-node is build with miniupnpc support, it will

try to employ UPnP protocol to get external IP from the router and enable port

forwarding.

listen_port

Specifies the port number that
pica-node(8)listens on. The default is 2299

nodes_db_file

Specifies the nodes database file. This is the SQLite 3 database. It stores
info about available nodes (their address, port, last seen online, etc).
The default is
/var/lib/pica-node/nodelist.db

dh_param_file

Specifies the path to DH parameters file in .pem format. The default is
/usr/share/pica-node/dhparam4096.pem

disable_reserved_addrs

Disables usage of reserved IP ranges (127.0.0.0/8, 10.0.0.0/8, 192.168.0.0/16 and others).
If such address is received from other node or is set as “announced_addr” value, it will be
rejected. This option can be set to “yes” or “no”. Default is “yes”.
