I don't see a reason why the linux version should deviate from the default golded settings. Within my outdated doc files i found

 -C
    Specifies another configuration file than the default GOLDED.CFG.

so it could be a case sensitive file system thing. But it's more likely that it is a path issue. As far as i remember the actual working dir and then a precompiled path is used to look for the golded.cfg.

If you have multiple golded.cfg on your system, for example in a NAS centralized multi OS installation, it could be useful to define -C to the full path to the config. At least it's location is clearly visible when you need to touch the config after years of untouched operation. ;-)
