            This option overrides the default shell command that the

            server will use to check if the client is still up.  Any
176
 
            output of the command will be ignored, only the exit code
177
 
            is checked:  If the exit code of the command is zero, the

            client is considered up.  The command will be run using

175
            run using <quote><command><filename>/bin/sh</filename>

            server on the Mandos client, and, if it find one, outputs
188
 
            a <option>checker</option> option to check for the

            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.
 
338
            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a
 
339
            space-separated number of values, each of which is a
 
340
            number and a one-character suffix.  The suffix must be one
 
341
            of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
 
342
            <quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
 
343
            minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively.  The values are
 
344
            added together to give the total time value, so all of
 
345
            <quote><literal>330s</literal></quote>,
 
346
            <quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
 
347
            <quote><literal>5m 30s</literal></quote> will give a value
