13       The file consists of one setting per line.  Lines starting with  #  are
14       comments and will not be processed.  All setting keywords are case sen‐
15       sitive.
16
17   Required settings:
18       EditionIDs
19              List of database edition IDs.  Edition IDs may consist  of  let‐
20              ters,  digits,  and  dashes (e.g., “GeoIP2-City”, “106”).  Note:
21              this was formerly called ProductIds.
22
23   Optional settings:
24       AccountID
25              Your MaxMind account ID.  This was formerly known as UserId.
26
27       DatabaseDirectory
28              The directory to store the database files.  If not set, the  de‐
29              fault  is  /usr/share/GeoIP.  This can be overridden at run time
30              by the -d command line argument.
31
32       Host   The host name of the server to use.  The default is updates.max‐
33              mind.com.
34
35       Proxy  The proxy host name or IP address.  You may optionally specify a
36              port number, e.g., 127.0.0.1:8888.  If no port number is  speci‐
37              fied, 1080 will be used.
38
39       ProxyUserPassword
40              The proxy user name and password, separated by a colon.  For in‐
41              stance, username:password.

43       PreserveFileTimes
44              Whether to preserve modification times of files downloaded  from
45              the server.  This option is either 0 or 1.  The default is 0.

49
50       LockFile
51              The lock file to use.  This ensures only one geoipupdate process
52              can run at a time.  Note: Once created, this lockfile is not re‐
53              moved from the filesystem.  The default is .geoipupdate.lock un‐
54              der the DatabaseDirectory.
