RemoteHost is configurable from the config file (so it should be documented), but it isn't required to be in the config file, as it could be supplied through the environment variable (used by Shadowsocks) or through the CLI options. The config file parser is called after these sources for RemoteHost are checked

If Cloak is used as transport for OpenVPN, it can not take remote host from environment. Sometimes having it in config file is more convenient, than pass it by command argument. |
