        If a client is compromised, its downtime should be duly noted
591
 
        by the server which would therefore disable the client.  But
592
 
        if the server was ever restarted, it would re-read its client
593
 
        list from its configuration file and again regard all clients
594
 
        therein as enabled, and hence eligible to receive their
595
 
        passwords.  Therefore, be careful when restarting servers if
596
 
        it is suspected that a client has, in fact, been compromised
597
 
        by parties who may now be running a fake Mandos client with
598
 
        the keys from the non-encrypted initial <acronym>RAM</acronym>
599
 
        image of the client host.  What should be done in that case
600
 
        (if restarting the server program really is necessary) is to
601
 
        stop the server program, edit the configuration file to omit
602
 
        any suspect clients, and restart the server program.
