		    Mandos Server D-Bus Interface

This file documents the D-Bus interface to the Mandos server.

* Bus: System bus

  Bus name: "se.bsnet.fukt.Mandos"

* Object Paths:

  | Path                  | Object            |

  |-----------------------+-------------------|

  | "/"                   | The Mandos Server |

  | "/clients/CLIENTNAME" | Mandos Client     |

* Mandos Server Interface:

  Interface name: "se.bsnet.fukt.Mandos"

** Methods:

*** GetAllClients() → (ao: Clients)

    Returns an array of all client D-Bus object paths

*** GetAllClientsWithProperties() → (a{oa{sv}}: ClientProperties)

    Returns an array of all clients and all their properties

*** RemoveClient(o: ObjectPath) → nothing

    Removes a client

** Signals:

*** ClientAdded(o: ObjectPath)

    A new client was added.

*** ClientNotFound(s: Fingerprint, s: Address)

    A client connected from Address using Fingerprint, but was

    rejected because it was not found in the server.  The fingerprint

    is represented as a string of hexadecimal digits.  The address is

    an IPv4 or IPv6 address in its normal string format.

*** ClientRemoved(o: ObjectPath, s: Name)

    A client named Name on ObjectPath was removed.

* Mandos Client Interface:

  Interface name: "se.bsnet.fukt.Mandos.Client"

** Methods

*** Approve(b: Approve) → nothing

    Approve or deny a connected client waiting for approval.  If

    denied, a client will not be sent its secret.

*** CheckedOK() → nothing

    Assert that this client has been checked and found to be alive.

    This will restart the timeout before disabling this client.  See

    also the "LastCheckedOK" property.

*** Disable() → nothing

    Disable this client.  See also the "Enabled" property.

*** Enable() → nothing

    Enable this client.  See also the "Enabled" property.

*** StartChecker() → nothing

    Start a new checker for this client, if none is currently

    running.  See also the "CheckerRunning" property.

*** StopChecker() → nothing

    Abort a running checker process for this client, if any.  See also

    the "CheckerRunning" property.

** Properties

   Note: Many of these properties directly correspond to a setting in

   "clients.conf", in which case they are fully documented in

   mandos-clients.conf(5).

   | Name                    | Type | Access     | clients.conf        |

   |-------------------------+------+------------+---------------------|

   | ApprovedByDefault       | b    | Read/Write | approved_by_default |

   | ApprovalDelay (a)       | t    | Read/Write | approval_delay      |

   | ApprovalDuration (a)    | t    | Read/Write | approval_duration   |

   | ApprovalPending (b)     | b    | Read       | N/A                 |

   | Checker                 | s    | Read/Write | checker             |

   | CheckerRunning (c)      | b    | Read/Write | N/A                 |

   | Created (d)             | s    | Read       | N/A                 |

   | Enabled (e)             | b    | Read/Write | N/A                 |

   | Fingerprint             | s    | Read       | fingerprint         |

   | Host                    | s    | Read/Write | host                |

   | Interval (a)            | t    | Read/Write | interval            |

   | LastApprovalRequest (f) | s    | Read       | N/A                 |

   | LastCheckedOK (g)       | s    | Read/Write | N/A                 |

   | LastEnabled (h)         | s    | Read       | N/A                 |

   | Name                    | s    | Read       | (Section name)      |

   | ObjectPath              | o    | Read       | N/A                 |

   | Secret (i)              | ay   | Write      | secret (or secfile) |

   | Timeout (a)             | t    | Read/Write | timeout             |

   a) Represented as milliseconds.

   b) An approval is currently pending.

   c) Setting this property is equivalent to calling StartChecker() or

      StopChecker().

   d) The creation time of this client object, as a RFC 3339 string.

   e) Setting this property is equivalent to calling Enable() or

      Disable().

   f) The time of the last approval request, as a RFC 3339 string, or

      an empty string if this has not happened.

   g) The last time a checker was successful, as a RFC 3339 string, or

      an empty string if this has not happened.  Setting this property

      is equivalent to calling CheckedOK(), i.e. the current time is

      set, regardless of the string sent.  Please always use an empty

      string when setting this property, to allow for possible future

      expansion.

   h) The last time this client was enabled, as a RFC 3339 string, or

      an empty string if this has not happened.

   i) A raw byte array, not hexadecimal digits.

** Signals

*** CheckerCompleted(n: Exitcode, x: Waitstatus, s: Command)

    A checker (Command) has completed.  Exitcode is either the exit

    code or -1 for abnormal exit.  In any case, the full Waitstatus

    (as from wait(2)) is also available.

*** CheckerStarted(s: Command)

    A checker command (Command) has just been started.

*** GotSecret()

    This client has been sent its secret.

*** NeedApproval(t: Timeout, b: ApprovedByDefault)

    This client will be approved or denied in exactly Timeout

    milliseconds, depending on ApprovedByDefault.  Approve() can now

    usefully be called on this client object.

*** PropertyChanged(s: Property, v: Value)

    The Property on this client has changed to Value.

*** Rejected(s: Reason)

    This client was not given its secret for a specified Reason.
