This file contains all application settings for Roadkill that typically need an application restart, or are not just cosmetic preferences. The installer will configure the file for you when you run the install wizard, if you need to change the config file later each of the properties available in the <roadkill... section can be found in the Api Documentation
connectionStrings.config
