This chapter describes the files and directories used by the Zorp Firewall Suite.

Directories

Zorp is using the standard Unix directory hierarchy for its files, but the exact location of the files is determined at configuration time.

An installation prefix can be chosen at configuration time which is represented by $prefix in the Table 1-1 below.
