#### 16.5.19 Remote programming customization

The configuration of the remote programming functionality has two separate parts: the tools configuration (remote connection tools, shells, and rsync parameters) and the servers configuration.

The first part (see Defining a remote connection tool, Defining a shell and Configuring rsync usage) is handled by a pre-installed file in the plug-ins directory called `protocols.xml`.

The second part (see Defining a remote server and Defining a remote path translation), when configured via the user interface (see Setup the remote servers), will create a remote.xml file in the user's gps directory. System-wide servers can be also installed.
