restarting servers if it is suspected that a client has, in

fact, been compromised by parties who may now be running a
523
541
fake Mandos client with the keys from the non-encrypted
524
initial <acronym>RAM</acronym> image of the client host. What
525
should be done in that case (if restarting the server program
526
really is necessary) is to stop the server program, edit the
542
initial RAM image of the client host. What should be done in
543
that case (if restarting the server program really is
544
necessary) is to stop the server program, edit the
527
545
configuration file to omit any suspect clients, and restart
528
546
the server program.
