QPID_<option>
There is an environment variable for each option.
The environment variable is the option name in uppercase, prefixed with

over-ridden by command line settings. For example:
export QPID_PORT=6000
export QPID_MAX_CONNECTIONS=10
export QPID_LOG_TO_FILE=/tmp/qpidd.log
/etc/qpidd.conf
Default configuration file.
Configuration file settings are over-ridden by command line or
environment variable settings. '--config <file>' or 'export
QPID_CONFIG=<file>' specifies an alternate file.
Each line is a name=value pair. Blank lines and lines beginning with #
are ignored. For example:
# My qpidd configuration file.
port=6000
max-connections=10
log-to-file=/tmp/qpidd.log
