This option overrides the default shell command that the

This option allows you to override the default shell

This option sets the OpenPGP fingerprint that identifies

The timeout is how long the server will wait, after a
344
successful checker run, until a client is disabled and not
345
allowed to get the data this server holds. By default
346
Mandos will use 5 minutes. See also the
347
<option>extended_timeout</option> option.
350
The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as an RFC
351
3339 duration; for example
352
<quote><literal>P1Y2M3DT4H5M6S</literal></quote> meaning
353
one year, two months, three days, four hours, five
354
minutes, and six seconds. Some values can be omitted, see
355
RFC 3339 Appendix A for details.

The timeout is how long the server will wait (for either a
326
successful checker run or a client receiving its secret)
327
until a client is disabled and not allowed to get the data
328
this server holds. By default Mandos will use 5 minutes.
331
The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a
332
space-separated number of values, each of which is a
333
number and a one-character suffix. The suffix must be one
334
of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
335
<quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
336
minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively. The values are
337
added together to give the total time value, so all of

<quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
