This option overrides the default shell command that the

This option allows you to override the default shell

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

The timeout is how long the server will wait, after a
338
successful checker run, until a client is disabled and not
339
allowed to get the data this server holds. By default
340
Mandos will use 5 minutes. See also the
341
<option>extended_timeout</option> option.
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.

The timeout is how long the server will wait (for either a
326
successful checker run or a client receiving its secret)
327
until a client is disabled and not allowed to get the data
328
this server holds. By default Mandos will use 5 minutes.
331
The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a
332
space-separated number of values, each of which is a
333
number and a one-character suffix. The suffix must be one
334
of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
335
<quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
336
minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively. The values are
337
added together to give the total time value, so all of

339
<quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
340
