Hi David,

Very good. You might also want to take a look at sampleConfig/DB_CONFIG
for some other suggested parameters.

FYI; The current trunk has a pull request at the moment where KDB and
PTree is set up with DB_CONFIG files if they are found in the basedir
(DB_CONFIG.[KDB|PTree] taking preference over DB_CONFIG for each
respectively). So this will be part of the next release. Should
hopefully make this process a bit smoother :)
