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

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

This option overrides the default shell command that the

output of the command will be ignored, only the exit code

This option allows you to override the default shell

<command>mandos-keygen</command>, when generating output

The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as an RFC
350
3339 duration; for example
351
<quote><literal>P1Y2M3DT4H5M6S</literal></quote> meaning
352
one year, two months, three days, four hours, five
353
minutes, and six seconds. Some values can be omitted, see
354
RFC 3339 Appendix A for details.
333
The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a
334
space-separated number of values, each of which is a
335
number and a one-character suffix. The suffix must be one
336
of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
337
<quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
338
minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively. The values are
339
added together to give the total time value, so all of
340
<quote><literal>330s</literal></quote>,
341
<quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
342
<quote><literal>5m 30s</literal></quote> will give a value
343
of five minutes and thirty seconds.
