 #### Configuration
 Some decisions need to be made on the client side, and most of those will be expressed in the form of environment variables passed into the container:
 
-| Variable | Example value | Description |
+| Variable | Example value (default)| Description |
 |:--- |:--- |:--- |
 | `SYNC_PEER` | `deb01.lab.bowdre.net` | FQDN or IP of the `library-syncer` server to which the client will connect |
-| `SYNC_PORT` | `2222` | SSH port for connecting to the server |
-| `SYNC_SCHEDULE` | `0 21 * * 5` | `cron`-formatted schedule for when the client should initiate a sync (example syncs at 9PM on Friday night) |
-| `SYNC_DELAY` | `true` | if true, sleeps a random number of seconds before begining the sync |
-| `SYNC_DELAY_MAX_SECONDS` | `21600` | maximum seconds to sleep (example will be delayed up to 6 hours) |

 Introducing a random sync delay might be useful if you have a bunch of remote sites and don't want them to attempt to sync all at once, but you're too lazy to manually customize the schedule for each one of them (no judgment!).
