      The file needs to list all clients that should be able to use

      runtime changes to the server, which it saves across restarts.

167
 
            the exit code is checked:  If the exit code of the command

            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a

            space-separated number of values, each of which is a

            of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
336
 
            <quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
337
 
            minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively.  The values are
338
 
            added together to give the total time value, so all of

349
            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as an RFC

            <quote><literal>P1Y2M3DT4H5M6S</literal></quote> meaning
 
352
            one year, two months, three days, four hours, five
