+ <para>The bbstored-config script creates configuration files and server

+ <varlistentry>
+ <term>configdir</term>
+
+ <listitem>
+ <para>The directory where config files will reside. A
+ <filename>bbstored</filename> subdirectory will be created where

+ <varname>configdir</varname>.</para>
+ </listitem>
