SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
|
|
vlmcsd.ini
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
vlmcsd.ini (or simply called the "ini file") is a configuration file
|
|
|
|
|
|
for vlmcsd(8). By default vlmcsd does not use a configuration file. It
|
|
|
|
|
|
is completely optional and for advanced users only. You must use the -i
|
|
|
|
|
|
option on the vlmcsd command line to use an ini file. There is no
|
|
|
|
|
|
default name or default location for the ini file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Everything, that can be configured in the ini file, may also be speci‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
fied on the command line. Any configuration option specified on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
command line takes precedence over the respective configuration line in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the ini file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Benefits of a configuration file
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
While you can use the configuration file to simply modify the default
|
|
|
|
|
|
behavior of vlmcsd, it can also be used to change the configuration of
|
|
|
|
|
|
vlmcsd after you sent a HUP signal(7). Whenever you send SIGHUP, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
configuration file will be re-read. Any changes you made to the ini
|
|
|
|
|
|
file will be reflected after vlmcsd received the hangup signal.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Differences between command line and configuration file
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you specify an illegal option or option argument on the command
|
|
|
|
|
|
line, vlmcsd displays help and exits. If you specify an incorrect key‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
word or argument in the ini file, vlmcsd displays a warning with some
|
|
|
|
|
|
information, ignores the respective line and continues. This is inten‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
tional and prevents vlmcsd from aborting after a SIGHUP if the configu‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
ration was modified incorrectly.

SYNTAX
|
|
|
|
|
|
vlmcsd.ini is a UTF-8 encoded text file with each line being in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
format keyword = argument. The keyword is not case-sensitive. The argu‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
ment is treated literally. It is neither required nor allowed to
|
|
|
|
|
|
enclose the argument in any form of quote characters except when quote
|
|
|
|
|
|
characters are part of the argument itself. Whitespace characters are
|
|
|
|
|
|
ignored only
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- at the beginning of a line
|
|
|
|
|
|
- between the keyword and '='
|
|
|
|
|
|
- between '=' and the argument
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Lines, that start with '#' or ';' are treated as comments. Empty lines
|
|
|
|
|
|
are ignored as well. If a keyword is repeated in another line, vlmcsd
|
|
|
|
|
|
will use the argument of the last occurence of the keyword. An excep‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
tion to this is the Listen keyword which can be specified multiple
|
|
|
|
|
|
times and causes vlmcsd to listen on more than one IP address and/or
|
|
|
|
|
|
port.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some arguments are binary arguments that need to be either TRUE or
|
|
|
|
|
|
FALSE. You can use "Yes", "On" or "1" as an alias for TRUE and "No",
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Off" or "0" as an alias for FALSE. Binary arguments are case-insensi‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
tive.

KEYWORDS
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following keywords are defined:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Listen This defines on what combinations of IP addresses and ports vlm‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
csd should listen. Listen can be specified more than once. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
argument has the form ipaddress[:port]. If you omit the port,
|
|
|
|
|
|
the default port of 1688 is used. If the ipaddress contains
|
|
|
|
|
|
colons and a port is used, you must enclose the ipaddress in
|
|
|
|
|
|
brackets. The default is to listen to 0.0.0.0:1688 and [::]:1688
|
|
|
|
|
|
which means listen to all IPv4 and all IPv6 addresses. See the
|
|
|
|
|
|
-L option in vlmcsd(8) for more info about the syntax. If you
|
|
|
|
|
|
use -L, -P, -4 or -6 on the command line, all Listen keywords in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the ini file will be ignored. The Listen keyword cannot be used
|
|
|
|
|
|
on Windows and Cygwin if vlmcsd has been compiled to use Micro‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
soft RPC.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Listen = 192.168.1.123:1688
|
|
|
|
|
|
Listen = 0.0.0.0:1234
|
|
|
|
|
|
Listen = [fe80::1721:12ff:fe81:d36b%eth0]:1688
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Port Can only be used on Windows and Cygwin if vlmcsd has been com‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
piled to use Microsoft RPC. Causes vlmcsd to listen on that port
|
|
|
|
|
|
instead of 1688. On all non-Windows operating systems or if vlm‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
csd has been compiled to use its own RPC implementation, you
|
|
|
|
|
|
must use Listen instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
UseNDR64
|
|
|
|
|
|
Can be TRUE or FALSE. Specifies whether you want to use the
|
|
|
|
|
|
NDR64 transfer syntax. See options -n0 and -n1 in vlmcsd(8). The
|
|
|
|
|
|
default is TRUE.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
UseBTFN
|
|
|
|
|
|
Can be TRUE or FALSE. Specifies whether you want to use bind
|
|
|
|
|
|
time feature negotiation in RPC. See options -b0 and -b1 in vlm‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
csd(8). The default is TRUE.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RandomizationLevel
|
|
|
|
|
|
The argument must 0, 1 or 2. This specifies the ePID randomiza‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
tion level. See options -r0, -r1 and -r2 in vlmcsd(8). The
|
|
|
|
|
|
default randomization level is 1.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
LCID Use a specific culture id (LCID) even if the ePID is randomized.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The argument must be a number between 1 and 32767. While any
|
|
|
|
|
|
number in that range is valid, you should use an offcial LCID. A
|
|
|
|
|
|
list of assigned LCIDs can be found at http://msdn.micro‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
soft.com/en-us/goglobal/bb964664.aspx. On the command line you
|
|
|
|
|
|
control this setting with option -C.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MaxWorkers
|
|
|
|
|
|
The argument specifies the maximum number of worker processes or
|
|
|
|
|
|
threads that will be used to serve activation requests concur‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
rently. This is the same as specifying -m on the command line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Minimum is 1. The maximum is platform specific and is at least
|
|
|
|
|
|
32767 but is likely to be greater on most systems. The default
|
|
|
|
|
|
is no limit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ConnectionTimeout
|
|
|
|
|
|
Used to control when the vlmcsd disconnects idle TPC connec‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
tions. The default is 30 seconds. This is the same setting as -t
|
|
|
|
|
|
on the command line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
DisconnectClientsImmediately
|
|
|
|
|
|
Set this to TRUE to disconnect a client after it got an activa‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
tion response regardless whether a timeout has occured or not.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The default is FALSE. Setting this to TRUE is non-standard
|
|
|
|
|
|
behavior. Use only if you are experiencing DoS or DDoS attacks.
|
|
|
|
|
|
On the command line you control this behavior with options -d
|
|
|
|
|
|
and -k.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
PidFile
|
|
|
|
|
|
Write a pid file. The argument is the full pathname of a pid
|
|
|
|
|
|
file. The pid file contains is single line containing the
|
|
|
|
|
|
process id of the vlmcsd process. It can be used to stop
|
|
|
|
|
|
(SIGTERM) or restart (SIGHUP) vlmcsd. This directive can be
|
|
|
|
|
|
overriden using -p on the command line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
LogFile
|
|
|
|
|
|
Write a log file. The argument is the full pathname of a log
|
|
|
|
|
|
file. On a unixoid OS and with Cygwin you can use the special
|
|
|
|
|
|
filename 'syslog' to log to the syslog facility. This is the
|
|
|
|
|
|
same as specifying -l on the command line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
LogVerbose
|
|
|
|
|
|
Set this to either TRUE or FALSE. The default is FALSE. If set
|
|
|
|
|
|
to TRUE, more details of each activation will be logged. You use
|
|
|
|
|
|
-v and -q in the command line to control this setting. LogVer‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
bose has an effect only if you specify a log file or redirect
|
|
|
|
|
|
logging to stdout(3).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ActivationInterval
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the same as specifying -A on the command line. See vlm‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
csd(8) for details. The default is 2 hours. Example: Activation‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interval = 1h
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RenewalInterval
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the same as specifying -R on the command line. See vlm‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
csd(8) for details. The default is 7 days. Example: Activation‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interval = 3h. Please note that the KMS client decides itself
|
|
|
|
|
|
when to renew activation. Even though vlmcsd sends the renewal
|
|
|
|
|
|
interval you specify, it is no more than some kind of recommen‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
dation to the client. Older KMS clients did follow the recommen‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
dation from a KMS server or emulator. Newer clients do not.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
User Run vlmcsd as another, preferrably less privileged, user. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
argument can be a user name or a numeric user id. You must have
|
|
|
|
|
|
the required privileges (capabilities on Linux) to change the
|
|
|
|
|
|
security context of a process without providing any credentials
|
|
|
|
|
|
(a password in most cases). On most unixoid OSses 'root' is the
|
|
|
|
|
|
only user who has these privileges in the default configuration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This setting is not available in the native Windows version of
|
|
|
|
|
|
vlmcsd. See -u in vlmcsd(8). This setting cannot be changed on
|
|
|
|
|
|
the fly by sending SIGHUP to vlmcsd.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Group Run vlmcsd as another, preferrably less privileged, group. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
argument can be a group name or a numeric group id. You must
|
|
|
|
|
|
have the required privileges (capabilities on Linux) to change
|
|
|
|
|
|
the security context of a process without providing any creden‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
tials (a password in most cases). On most unixoid OSses 'root'
|
|
|
|
|
|
is the only user who has these privileges in the default config‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
uration. This setting is not available in the native Windows
|
|
|
|
|
|
version of vlmcsd. See -g in vlmcsd(8). This setting cannot be
|
|
|
|
|
|
changed on the fly by sending SIGHUP to vlmcsd.

SPECIAL KEYWORDS
|
|
|
|
|
|
Any valid GUID is being treated as a special keyword in the ini file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is used to select a specfic ePID and HwId for an application GUID.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The argument has the form ePID [ / HwId ]. KMS currently knows only 3
|
|
|
|
|
|
application GUIDs:

To use specific ePIDs for Windows, Office 2010 and Office 2013/2016 you
|
2015-11-29 17:30:52 +08:00
|
|
|
|
could add the following lines to vlmcsd.ini:

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ePID is currently a comment only. You can specify any string up to
|
|
|
|
|
|
63 bytes. In Windows 7 Microsoft has blacklisted few ( < 10 ) ePIDs
|
|
|
|
|
|
that were used in KMSv5 versions of the "ratiborus virtual machine".
|
|
|
|
|
|
Microsoft has given up on blacklisting when KMS emulators appeared in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the wild.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Even if you can use "Activated by cool hacker guys" as an ePID, you may
|
|
|
|
|
|
wish to use ePIDs that cannot be detected as non-MS ePIDs. If you don't
|
|
|
|
|
|
know how these "valid" ePIDs look like exactly, do not use GUIDS in
|
|
|
|
|
|
vlmcsd.ini. vlmcsd provides internal mechanisms to generate valid
|
|
|
|
|
|
ePIDs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you use non-ASCII characters in your ePID (you shouldn't do anyway),
|
|
|
|
|
|
these must be in UTF-8 format. This is especially important when you
|
|
|
|
|
|
run vlmcsd on Windows or cygwin because UTF-8 is not the default encod‐
|
|
|
|
|
|
ing for most editors.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are specifying an optional HWID it follows the same syntax as in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the -H option in vlmcsd(8) ecxept that you must not enclose a HWID in
|
|
|
|
|
|
quotes even if it contains spaces.
