- <p><opt>enable-dbus=</opt> Takes a boolean value ("yes" or
- "no"). If set to "yes" avahi-daemon connects to DBUS, to offer
- an object oriented client API. Only available if avahi has
- been compiled with <opt>--enable-dbus</opt> in which case it
- defaults to "yes".</p>
+ <p><opt>enable-dbus=</opt> Takes either "yes", "no" or
+ "warn". If set to "yes" avahi-daemon connects to D-BUS,
+ offering an object oriented client API. It is only available
+ if avahi has been compiled with <opt>--enable-dbus</opt> in
+ which case it defaults to "yes". "warn" behaves like "yes",
+ but the daemon starts up even when it fails to connect to a
+ D-BUS daemon.</p>
</option>
+ <option>
+ <p><opt>add-service-cookie=</opt> Takes a boolean value ("yes"
+ or "no"). If set to "yes" an implicit TXT entry will be added
+ to all locally registered services, containing a cookie value
+ which is chosen randomly on daemon startup. This can be used
+ to detect if two services on two different
+ interfaces/protocols are actually identical. Defaults to
+ "yes".</p>

+ <option>
+ <p><opt>rlimit-as=</opt> Value in bytes for RLIMIT_AS (maximum size of the process's virtual memory). Sensible values are heavily system dependent.</p>
+ </option>
+
+ <option>
+ <p><opt>rlimit-core=</opt> Value in bytes for RLIMIT_CORE (maximum core file size). Unless you want to debug avahi-daemon, it is safe to set this to 0.</p>

+ <p><opt>rlimit-data=</opt> Value in bytes for RLIMIT_DATA (maximum size of the process's data segment). Sensible values are heavily system dependent.</p>
+ </option>
+
+ <option>
+ <p><opt>rlimit-fsize=</opt> Value for RLIMIT_FSIZE (maximum size of files the process may create). Since avahi-daemon shouldn't write any files to disk, it is safe to set this to 0.</p>
+ </option>
+
+ <option>
+ <p><opt>rlimit-nofile=</opt> Value for RLIMIT_NOFILE (open file descriptors). avahi-daemon shouldn't need more than 15 to 20 open file descriptors concurrently.</p>
+ </option>

+ <p><opt>rlimit-stack=</opt> Value in bytes for RLIMIT_STACK (maximum size of the process stack). Sensible values are heavily system dependent.</p>
+ </option>
+
+ <option>
+ <p><opt>rlimit-nproc=</opt> Value for RLIMIT_NPROC (number of process of user). Since only a single avahi-daemon process is usually running you can set this safely to 1.</p>
