    When using boost::program_options to parse a INI file, the option names must be prefixed by their enclosing section names.

    In other words, sections are part of the option ‘identifier’, but I don’t think you have a way to identify to which section a given server.ip variable belongs (and thus, which is the associated server.password).

    I think you should consider Boost.PropertyTree (which also supports INI file parsing) for this task.
