When the directive is in a .nsr file, the directory is not specified.
The directory is implied from the location.

When the directive is applied at the NSR server to a client, then the
directories for the effect are specified.

I've never tried specifying a directory in a .nsr file.  I don't know if
it is read or just ignored.
