It depends whether you choose classic spooling or berkley DB during 
installation. Although changing the files by hand in the frmer case my work in 
some cases, the best is to use the `qconf` command to change certain settings. 
Otherwise changes may not be reflected instantly.

As these files are only present on the master, there is no need to copy them to 
all nodes.
