+ =head1 CUSTOM TYPES
+ 
+ If you want to specify custom types, you should do so by specifying a custom
+ file in addition to the default one (see L<FILES>) above. You can do that by
+ having multiple B<TypesDB> statements in your configuration file or by
+ specifying more than one file in one line.
+ 
+ For example:
+ 
+  TypesDB "/opt/collectd/share/collectd/types.db"
+  TypesDB "/opt/collectd/etc/types.db.custom"
