            This option overrides the default shell command that the
176
 
            server will use to check if the client is still up.  Any
177
 
            output of the command will be ignored, only the exit code
178
 
            is checked:  If the exit code of the command is zero, the
179
 
            client is considered up.  The command will be run using
180

            This option allows you to override the default shell

            command that the server will use to check if the client is
 
172
            still up.  Any output of the command will be ignored, only
 
173
            the exit code is checked:  If the exit code of the command
 
174
            is zero, the client is considered up.  The command will be
 
175
            run using <quote><command><filename>/bin/sh</filename>
181
176
            <option>-c</option></command></quote>, so
182
177
            <varname>PATH</varname> will be searched.  The default

            <command>mandos-keygen</command>, when generating output
187
 
            to be inserted into this file, normally looks for an SSH
188
 
            server on the Mandos client, and, if it find one, outputs
189
 
            a <option>checker</option> option to check for the

            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.
 
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
