What is a CONF file?
The configuration file, commonly referred to as ‘config file,’ is used on a Unix and Linux based system. It’s a primary associated with IRC (related configuration file). To open the file, you can use TextMate in macOS, or GNU Emacs on Linux. These files are similar CFG files found on the mackintosh and windows system. Configuration files are used to store settings that configure the application and system process. These files are quite difficult to come across unless one is looking to modify particular settings. You can also use config files to set the parameters and initial settings for some of the computer programs.
Some applications give tools to create, modify, and also verify the syntax of the configuration file.
Examples of these files include smb.conf for the Sermba server, httpd.conf for the Apache web server, syslog.conf for system login, and rc.conf for the system startup. Some of the programs that can open and convert .conf files include a Linux configuration file and IRC related configuration file.
