DESCRIPTION
-----------
Put text here about tinyproxy.conf.
`tinyproxy(8)` reads its configuration file, typically stored in
`/etc/tinyproxy/tinyproxy.conf` (or passed to Tinyproxy with -c on the
command line). This manpage describes the syntax and contents of the
configuration file.
The Tinyproxy configuration file contains key-value pairs, one per
line. Lines starting with `#` and empty lines are comments and are
ignored. Keywords are case-insensitive, whereas values are
case-sensitive. Values may be enclosed in double-quotes (") if they
contain spaces.
The possible keywords and their descriptions are as follows:
*User*::
The user which the Tinyproxy process should run as, after the
initial port-binding has been done as the root user.
*Group*::
The group which the Tinyproxy process should run as, after the
initial port-binding has been done as the root user.
*Port*::
The port which the Tinyproxy service will listen on. If the port is
less than 1024, you will need to start the Tinyproxy process as the
root user.
