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

This option overrides the default shell command that the

164
This option allows you to override the default shell
165
command that the server will use to check if the client is
166
still up. Any output of the command will be ignored, only
167
the exit code is checked: If the exit code of the command

185
<command>mandos-keygen</command>, when generating output
186
to be inserted into this file, normally looks for an SSH
187
server on the Mandos client, and, if it find one, outputs
188
a <option>checker</option> option to check for the

client’s key fingerprint – this is more secure against

This option is <emphasis>optional</emphasis>.
208
Extended timeout is an added timeout that is given once
209
after a password has been sent successfully to a client.
210
The timeout is by default longer than the normal timeout,
211
and is used for handling the extra long downtime while a
212
machine is booting up. Time to take into consideration
213
when changing this value is file system checks and quota
214
checks. The default value is 15 minutes.
217
The format of <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is the same
218

341
The timeout is how long the server will wait, after a
342
successful checker run, until a client is disabled and not
343
allowed to get the data this server holds. By default
344
Mandos will use 5 minutes. See also the
345
<option>extended_timeout</option> option.
348
The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as an RFC
349
3339 duration; for example
350
<quote><literal>P1Y2M3DT4H5M6S</literal></quote> meaning
351
one year, two months, three days, four hours, five
352
minutes, and six seconds. Some values can be omitted, see
353
RFC 3339 Appendix A for details.

Whether this client should be enabled by default. The
367
default is <quote>true</quote>.
302
The timeout is how long the server will wait (for either a
303
successful checker run or a client receiving its secret)
304
until a client is disabled and not allowed to get the data
305
this server holds. By default Mandos will use 1 hour.
308
The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a
309
space-separated number of values, each of which is a
310
number and a one-character suffix. The suffix must be one
311
of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
312
<quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
313
minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively. The values are
314
added together to give the total time value, so all of
315
<quote><literal>330s</literal></quote>,
316
<quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
317
<quote><literal>5m 30s</literal></quote> will give a value
