If present, this option must be set to a string of

This option is only used if <option>secret</option> is not
234
specified, in which case this option is
235
<emphasis>required</emphasis>.
238
Similar to the <option>secret</option>, except the secret
239
data is in an external file. The contents of the file
240
should <emphasis>not</emphasis> be base64-encoded, but
241
will be sent to clients verbatim.
244
File names of the form <filename>~user/foo/bar</filename>

This option is <emphasis>optional</emphasis>, but highly

<emphasis>recommended</emphasis> unless the
258
<option>checker</option> option is modified to a
259
non-standard value without <quote>%(host)s</quote> in it.
240
If this option is not specified, the <option
241
>secfile</option> option is used instead, but one of them
242
<emphasis>must</emphasis> be present.
248
<term><literal>secfile</literal></term>
250
<synopsis><literal>secfile = </literal><replaceable
251
>FILENAME</replaceable>
254
The same as <option>secret</option>, but the secret data
255
is in an external file. The contents of the file should
256
<emphasis>not</emphasis> be base64-encoded, but will be
257
sent to clients verbatim.
260
This option is only used, and <emphasis>must</emphasis> be
261
present, if <option>secret</option> is not specified.
267
<term><literal>host</literal></term>
269
<synopsis><literal>host = </literal><replaceable
270
>STRING</replaceable>
262
273
Host name for this client. This is not used by the server
263
274
directly, but can be, and is by default, used by the
316
327
percent characters in a row (<quote>%%%%</quote>) must be
317
328
entered. Also, a bad format here will lead to an immediate
318
329
but <emphasis>silent</emphasis> run-time fatal exit; debug
319
mode is needed to expose an error of this kind.
330
