How long to wait for external approval before resorting to

123
use the <option>approved_by_default</option> value. The
120
default is <quote>0s</quote>, i.e. not to wait.
124

171
This option is <emphasis>optional</emphasis>.
170
This option allows you to override the default shell
171
command that the server will use to check if the client is
172
still up. Any output of the command will be ignored, only
173
the exit code is checked: If the exit code of the command
174
is zero, the client is considered up. The command will be
175
run using <quote><command><filename>/bin/sh</filename>

This option overrides the default shell command that the
175
server will use to check if the client is still up. Any
176
output of the command will be ignored, only the exit code
177
is checked: If the exit code of the command is zero, the
178
client is considered up. The command will be run using
179
<quote><command><filename>/bin/sh</filename>
176
180
<option>-c</option></command></quote>, so
177
181
<varname>PATH</varname> will be searched. The default
178
182
value for the checker command is <quote><literal
179
183
><command>fping</command> <option>-q</option> <option
180
>--</option> %%(host)s</literal></quote>.
184
>--</option> %%(host)s</literal></quote>. Note that
185
<command>mandos-keygen</command>, when generating output
186
to be inserted into this file, normally looks for an SSH
187
server on the Mandos client, and, if it find one, outputs
188
a <option>checker</option> option to check for the
189
client’s key fingerprint – this is more secure against
183

In addition to normal start time expansion, this option
335
345
<option>extended_timeout</option> option.
338
The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a
339
space-separated number of values, each of which is a
340
number and a one-character suffix. The suffix must be one
341
of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
342
<quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
343
minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively. The values are
344
added together to give the total time value, so all of
345
<quote><literal>330s</literal></quote>,
346
<quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
347
<quote><literal>5m 30s</literal></quote> will give a value
348
of five minutes and thirty seconds.
348
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.
