* Installing the Mandos server

4. Configure the client to use the correct network interface. The
102
interface to use is automatically chosen at boot, and if this
103
needs to be adjusted, it will be necessary to edit
104
/etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf to change the DEVICE setting
105
there. Alternatively, the file /etc/mandos/plugin-runner.conf
106
can be edited to add a "--device" parameter for the
107
mandos-client(8) plugin. Please note: If any of those files are
108
changed, the initrd.img file must be updated, possibly using the

4. Configure the client to use any special configuration needed for
119
your local system. Note: This is not necessary if the server is
120
present on the same wired local network as the client. If you do
121
make changes to /etc/mandos/plugin-runner.conf, the initrd.img
122
file must be updated, possibly using the following command:
111
124
# update-initramfs -k all -u

133
# /usr/lib/mandos/plugins.d/mandos-client \

This command should retrieve the password from the server,
125
140
decrypt it, and output it to standard output.
127
142
After this, the client computer should be able to reboot without
128
143
needing a password entered on the console, as long as it does not
129
take more than an hour to reboot.

take more than five minutes to reboot.

* Further customizations

You may want to tighten or loosen the timeouts in the server

configuration files; see mandos.conf(5) and mandos-clients.conf(5).

If IPsec is not used, it is suggested that a more cryptographically
136
secure checker program is used and configured, since without IPsec
137
ping packets can be faked.

If IPsec is not used and SSH is not installed, it is suggested that

a more cryptographically secure checker program is used and
