* Installing the Mandos server

and append this to the file "/etc/mandos/clients.conf" *on the

4. Configure the client to use the correct network interface. The
101
default is "eth0", and if this needs to be adjusted, it will be
102
necessary to edit /etc/mandos/plugin-runner.conf to uncomment and
103
change the line there. If that file is changed, the initrd.img
111
4. Configure the client to use any special configuration needed for
112
your local system. Note: This is not necessary if the server is
113
present on the same wired local network as the client. If you do
114
make changes to /etc/mandos/plugin-runner.conf, the initrd.img
104
115
file must be updated, possibly using the following command:
106
117
# update-initramfs -k all -u
108
119
5. On the server computer, start the server by running the command
109
120
For Debian: su -c 'invoke-rc.d mandos start'
110
For Ubuntu: sudo invoke-rc.d mandos start
121
For Ubuntu: sudo service mandos start
112
123
At this point, it is possible to verify that the correct password
113
124
will be received by the client by running the command:
115
126
# /usr/lib/mandos/plugins.d/mandos-client \
116
127
--pubkey=/etc/keys/mandos/pubkey.txt \
117
--seckey=/etc/keys/mandos/seckey.txt; echo
128
--seckey=/etc/keys/mandos/seckey.txt \
129
--tls-privkey=/etc/keys/mandos/tls-privkey.pem \
130
--tls-pubkey=/etc/keys/mandos/tls-pubkey.pem; echo
119
132
This command should retrieve the password from the server,
120
133
decrypt it, and output it to standard output.
122
135
After this, the client computer should be able to reboot without
123
136
needing a password entered on the console, as long as it does not
124
take more than an hour to reboot.
137
take more than five minutes to reboot.

* Further customizations
128
141
You may want to tighten or loosen the timeouts in the server
129
142
configuration files; see mandos.conf(5) and mandos-clients.conf(5).
130
If IPsec is not used, it is suggested that a more cryptographically
131
secure checker program is used and configured, since without IPsec
132
ping packets can be faked.
143
If IPsec is not used and SSH is not installed, it is suggested that

a more cryptographically secure checker program is used and
