-config

Location of system configuration file. Default = "../hurricane.conf"

Takes as a single argument the name of the config file, normally ../<typhoon|twister|tornado_be>.conf. If you specify this argument in the line which starts <typhoond|twisterd|tornado_be> in the bin/start script, you should add it to the line which runs validate as well, so that validate checks the same file which will be used to configure the server.

-feeds

Location of feed configuration file. Default = "../feeds.conf"

Takes as a single argument the name of the feed definition file, normally ../feeds.conf. If you specify this argument in the line which starts <typhoond|twisterd|tornado_be> in the bin/start script, you should add it to the line which runs validate as well, so that validate checks the same file which will be used to configure the server.
