            Broker config.xml Overview
          </title>
  <para>
            The broker config.xml file which is shipped in the etc directory
            of any Qpid binary distribution details various options and
            configuration for the Java Qpid broker implementation.
          </para>
  <para>
            In tandem with the virtualhosts.xml file, the config.xml file
            allows you to control much of the deployment detail for your Qpid
            broker in a flexible fashion.
          </para>
  <para>
            Note that you can pass the config.xml you wish to use for your
            broker instance to the broker using the -c command line option.
            In turn, you can specify the paths for the broker password file
            and virtualhosts.xml files in your config.xml for simplicity.
          </para>
