Files

/etc/scscp/gap/server.g

This file is the GAP SCSCP server configuration file on Fedora systems: it loads all necessary packages, reads all needed code, installs all procedures which will be exposed to the client and finally starts the SCSCP server itself.

/etc/scscp/gap/config.g

/etc/scscp/gap/configpar.g These files set the default parameters needed by the GAP SCSCP package; they are fully commented.

/etc/scscp/gap/

This directory is the default location on Fedora systems for all systemwide configuration material needed by the GAP SCSCP server and any GAP SCSCP client.
