21 Generation of the files is controlled by the configuration file
22 bf(/etc/userdir-ldap/ud-generate.conf). The output is placed in
23 bf(/var/cache/userdir-ldap/hosts/<hostname>/). Each host listed in the
24 configuration file has its own home dir path and its own list of groups that
25 are allowed to login to the machine.
27 The format of the configuration file is a one line per host with these fields:
28 verb(host homedirpath group1 group2 ...)

30 are emitted to the output files.
