Clustering values from these files’ configurations.

vkey = saltqwe123qwe... · 1 file

3 of the 4 files are VShell loaders whose configuration was read from the file. A VShell loader’s only configuration is the address and port it calls. The listener key (vkey) and the salt arrive from the listener when the loader connects, so only sandbox runs that reached a live listener show them.
