mserver5 has an argument called —dbextras. I prefer to control mserver5 using monetdbd, but I don't see any way of specifying this option in either monetdb or monetdbd. Is there, say, a property that can be set in monetdbd or monetdb. The latter probably makes more sense, as I think I would want to control it at the DB level not the dbfarm level.
