### Using templates (or other configuration sections)

-     	[section](name[,name])
      	label = value

The name within the parenthesis refers to other sections, either templates or standard sections. The referred sections are included before the configuration engine parses the local settings within the section as though their entire contents (and anything they were previously based upon) were included in the new section. For example consider the following:

-     [foo]
      permit=192.168.0.2
      host=asdf
      deny=192.168.0.1

      [bar]
      permit=192.168.1.2
      host=jkl
      deny=192.168.1.1

      [baz](foo,bar)
      permit=192.168.3.1
      host=bnm

The [baz] section will be processed as though it had been written in the following way:

-     [baz]
      permit=192.168.0.2
      host=asdf
      deny=192.168.0.1
      permit=192.168.1.2
      host=jkl
      deny=192.168.1.1
      permit=192.168.3.1
      host=bnm
