<command>&COMMANDNAME;</command> is a server daemon which
119
114
handles incoming request for passwords for a pre-defined list of
120
client host computers. For an introduction, see
121
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>intro</refentrytitle>
122
<manvolnum>8mandos</manvolnum></citerefentry>. The Mandos server
123
uses Zeroconf to announce itself on the local network, and uses
124
TLS to communicate securely with and to authenticate the
125
clients. The Mandos server uses IPv6 to allow Mandos clients to
126
use IPv6 link-local addresses, since the clients will probably
127
not have any other addresses configured (see <xref
128
linkend="overview"/>). Any authenticated client is then given
129
the stored pre-encrypted password for that specific client.

for some time, the client is assumed to be compromised and is no
355
330
longer eligible to receive the encrypted password. (Manual
356
331
intervention is required to re-enable a client.) The timeout,
357
extended timeout, checker program, and interval between checks
358
can be configured both globally and per client; see

The server can be configured to require manual approval for a
370
client before it is sent its secret. The delay to wait for such
371
approval and the default action (approve or deny) can be
372
configured both globally and per client; see <citerefentry>

375
will be approved immediately without delay.
378
This can be used to deny a client its secret if not manually
379
approved within a specified time. It can also be used to make
380
the server delay before giving a client its secret, allowing
381
optional manual denying of this specific client.
