First off, let me correct myself here: If you downloaded the sources and compiled it yourself, you should have already edited mygolded.__h and renamed it, because otherwise it won't compile. Correct?

That would probably be a good one to start with, as it contains the most options, and modify it too your needs.

There is a command line switch where you can point to the config file. I believe it's '-c<path to golded.cfg>'. Otherwise, if you run it without that parameter I'm fairly certain it will expect it in the same directory.
