* Installing the Mandos server

4. Configure the client to use the correct network interface. The
102
default is "eth0", and if this needs to be adjusted, it will be
103
necessary to edit /etc/mandos/plugin-runner.conf to uncomment and
104
change the line there. If that file is changed, the initrd.img
112
4. Configure the client to use any special configuration needed for
113
your local system. Note: This is not necessary if the server is
114
present on the same wired local network as the client. If you do
115
make changes to /etc/mandos/plugin-runner.conf, the initrd.img
105
116
file must be updated, possibly using the following command:
107
118
# update-initramfs -k all -u
109
120
5. On the server computer, start the server by running the command
110
121
For Debian: su -c 'invoke-rc.d mandos start'
111
For Ubuntu: sudo invoke-rc.d mandos start
122
For Ubuntu: sudo service mandos start
113
124
At this point, it is possible to verify that the correct password
114
125
will be received by the client by running the command:
116
127
# /usr/lib/mandos/plugins.d/mandos-client \
117
128
--pubkey=/etc/keys/mandos/pubkey.txt \
118
--seckey=/etc/keys/mandos/seckey.txt; echo
129
--seckey=/etc/keys/mandos/seckey.txt \
130
--tls-privkey=/etc/keys/mandos/tls-privkey.pem \
131
--tls-pubkey=/etc/keys/mandos/tls-pubkey.pem; echo
120
133
This command should retrieve the password from the server,
121
134
decrypt it, and output it to standard output.
123
136
After this, the client computer should be able to reboot without
124
137
needing a password entered on the console, as long as it does not
125
take more than an hour to reboot.
138
take more than five minutes to reboot.

* Further customizations
129
142
You may want to tighten or loosen the timeouts in the server
130
143
configuration files; see mandos.conf(5) and mandos-clients.conf(5).
131
If IPsec is not used, it is suggested that a more cryptographically
132
secure checker program is used and configured, since without IPsec
133
ping packets can be faked.
144
If IPsec is not used and SSH is not installed, it is suggested that

a more cryptographically secure checker program is used and

configured, since, without IPsec, ping packets can be faked.
