      The file needs to list all clients that should be able to use
68
 
      the service.  All clients listed will be regarded as enabled,
69
 
      even if a client was disabled in a previous run of the server.

      the service.  The settings in this file can be overridden by
 
70
      runtime changes to the server, which it saves across restarts.

            This option allows you to override the default shell

            command that the server will use to check if the client is
166
 
            still up.  Any output of the command will be ignored, only
167
 
            the exit code is checked:  If the exit code of the command
168
 
            is zero, the client is considered up.  The command will be

            This option overrides the default shell command that the

            <command>mandos-keygen</command>, when generating output
 
182
            to be inserted into this file, normally looks for an SSH
 
183
            server on the Mandos client, and, if it find one, outputs
 
184
            a <option>checker</option> option to check for the
 
185
            client’s key fingerprint – this is more secure against

            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a
333
 
            space-separated number of values, each of which is a
334
 
            number and a one-character suffix.  The suffix must be one
335
 
            of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
336
 
            <quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
337
 
            minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively.  The values are
338
 
            added together to give the total time value, so all of
339
 
            <quote><literal>330s</literal></quote>,
340
 
            <quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
341
 
            <quote><literal>5m 30s</literal></quote> will give a value
342
 
            of five minutes and thirty seconds.
 
344
            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as an RFC
 
345
            3339 duration; for example
 
346
            <quote><literal>P1Y2M3DT4H5M6S</literal></quote> meaning
 
347
            one year, two months, three days, four hours, five
 
348
            minutes, and six seconds.  Some values can be omitted, see
 
349
            RFC 3339 Appendix A for details.
