64
The file &CONFPATH; is a configuration file for <citerefentry
65
><refentrytitle>mandos</refentrytitle>
66
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>, read by it at startup.
67
The file needs to list all clients that should be able to use
68
the service. All clients listed will be regarded as enabled,
69
even if a client was disabled in a previous run of the server.

The format starts with a <literal>[<replaceable>section
73
header</replaceable>]</literal> which is either
74
<literal>[DEFAULT]</literal> or <literal>[<replaceable>client
75
name</replaceable>]</literal>. The <replaceable>client
76
name</replaceable> can be anything, and is not tied to a host
77
name. Following the section header is any number of
78
<quote><varname><replaceable>option</replaceable
79
></varname>=<replaceable>value</replaceable></quote> entries,
80
with continuations in the style of RFC 822. <quote><varname
81
><replaceable>option</replaceable></varname>: <replaceable
82
>value</replaceable></quote> is also accepted. Note that
83
leading whitespace is removed from values. Values can contain
84
format strings which refer to other values in the same section,
85
or values in the <quote>DEFAULT</quote> section (see <xref

This option allows you to override the default shell

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

is zero, the client is considered up. The command will be
169
run using <quote><command><filename>/bin/sh</filename>

Extended timeout is an added timeout that is given once
193
after a password has been sent successfully to a client.
194
The timeout is by default longer than the normal timeout,
195
and is used for handling the extra long downtime while a
196
machine is booting up. Time to take into consideration
197
when changing this value is file system checks and quota
198
checks. The default value is 15 minutes.

If present, this option must be set to a string of
298
base64-encoded binary data. It will be decoded and sent
299
to the client matching the above
300
<option>fingerprint</option>. This should, of course, be
301
OpenPGP encrypted data, decryptable only by the client.
302
The program <citerefentry><refentrytitle><command
303
>mandos-keygen</command></refentrytitle><manvolnum
304
>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> can, using its

this, if desired.

</para>
308
<para>
309
Note: this value of this option will probably be very
310
long. A useful feature to avoid having unreadably-long
311
lines is that a line beginning with white space adds to
312
the value of the previous line, RFC 822-style.

The timeout is how long the server will wait, after a
326
successful checker run, until a client is disabled and not
327
allowed to get the data this server holds. By default
328
Mandos will use 5 minutes. See also the

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

336
<quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
337
minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively. The values are

added together to give the total time value, so all of

<quote><literal>330s</literal></quote>,
340
<quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
