     • logfile: Specifies the log file location.
     • disablelog: Controls whether logging is enabled (0) or disabled (1).
     • Other global settings related to network, cache, and protocols.
2. oscam.server:

   • Define users, passwords, and group assignments.
   • Specify which readers each user can access.
4. oscam.services:
   • Contains service definitions (channels, bouquets, etc.).
   • Maps service IDs (SIDs) to readable names.
   • Used for channel mapping and filtering.
5. oscam.srvid:
   • Provides service details (e.g., channel names, provider IDs).
