The options defined in server client optins have precidence >From page 353 in the server guide V5.4
Any include-exclude statements in the server client option set have priority over the include-exclude statements in the local client options file. The server include-exclude statements are always enforced and placed at the bottom of the include-exclude list and evaluated before the client include-exclude statements.
