What are all of the LON-CAPA configuration values?  Expiration Cache Time?  Server Load?  Machine ID?  LON-CAPA Domain?
    LON Host ID ("Machine Name") 
    is an internal ID within the LON-CAPA network used to specify
    the uniqueness of a particular LON-CAPA server.
    
    LON System Administrator E-Mail
    specifies the e-mail address of an institutional member
    responsible for direct upkeep of this server.
    
    LON Domain ("Domain Name")
    is a unique internal identifier within the LON-CAPA network
    specific to the home institution;
    A LON-CAPA domain is a collection of load-balancing institutional
    machines forming a cluster of LON-CAPA servers. It has nothing to
    do with the many other meanings for the word "domain", such as
    "domain names" like "loncapa.org", or Windows file server domains.
    If you are installing a LON-CAPA server for testing purposes,
    it is safe to create your own domain name for testing. You should
    ask the person running a real domain before adding your computer
    to their domain.
    
    LON Load Limit ("Server Load")
    specifies a threshold of activity within The LearningOnline
    Network that this machine should provide.  We strongly recommend
    a value of 2.00.  Depending on processor architecture (dual processor),
    this value may be increased, but there is no readily available
    measure in this regard.
    
    Cache Expiration Time
    indicates, in seconds, how long distributed resources should be
    held in the server's cache when not being accessed by students,
    instructors, or any other class of user.
