            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a

            minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively.  The values are

            The timeout is how long the server will wait, after a
 
332
            successful checker run, until a client is disabled and not
 
333
            allowed to get the data this server holds.  By default
 
334
            Mandos will use 5 minutes.  See also the
