I stand corrected, you can use true/false or on/off. This applies to all 
settings that take a boolean flag.

common/parse.c
                 if (!strcasecmp (val, "true")
                     || !strcasecmp (val, "on"))
                         buf [0] = 1;
                 else if (!strcasecmp (val, "false")
                          || !strcasecmp (val, "off"))
                         buf [0] = 0;
