Everything except listen applies straight away, even while the hub runs.
Settings live in the settings part of hub.json. You can edit the file by hand, but the commands are safer: they lock the file so the running hub never reads half an edit.
All commands use the folder given by -d folder, or the DOORHUB_DIR environment variable, or /opt/doorhub (Linux) / C:\doorhub (Windows).
doorhub -d /srv/hub2 settings
With -d you can run more than one hub on one machine, each with its own folder, listen port and service.
