      The only remaining weak point is that someone with physical
450
450
      access to the client hard drive might turn off the client
451
451
      computer, read the OpenPGP keys directly from the hard drive,
452
 
      and communicate with the server.  To safeguard against this, the
453
 
      server is supposed to notice the client disappearing and stop
454
 
      giving out the encrypted data.  Therefore, it is important to
455
 
      set the timeout and checker interval values tightly on the
456
 
      server.  See <citerefentry><refentrytitle
 
452
      and communicate with the server.  The defense against this is
 
453
      that the server is supposed to notice the client disappearing
 
454
      and will stop giving out the encrypted data.  Therefore, it is
 
455
      important to set the timeout and checker interval values tightly
 
456
      on the server.  See <citerefentry><refentrytitle
