The file needs to list all clients that should be able to use

runtime changes to the server, which it saves across restarts.

This option overrides the default shell command that the

output of the command will be ignored, only the exit code

This option allows you to override the default shell

command that the server will use to check if the client is
167
still up. Any output of the command will be ignored, only

185
<command>mandos-keygen</command>, when generating output

The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as an RFC
349
3339 duration; for example
350
<quote><literal>P1Y2M3DT4H5M6S</literal></quote> meaning
351
one year, two months, three days, four hours, five
352
minutes, and six seconds. Some values can be omitted, see
353
RFC 3339 Appendix A for details.
333
The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a
334
space-separated number of values, each of which is a
335
number and a one-character suffix. The suffix must be one
336
of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
337
<quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
338
minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively. The values are
339
added together to give the total time value, so all of
340
<quote><literal>330s</literal></quote>,
341
<quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
342
<quote><literal>5m 30s</literal></quote> will give a value
