            This option allows you to override the default shell
171
 
            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>

            This option overrides the default shell command that the

            <quote><command><filename>/bin/sh</filename>
176

            <option>-c</option></command></quote>, so
177
177
            <varname>PATH</varname> will be searched.  The default

            <command>mandos-keygen</command>, when generating output
 
182
            to be inserted into this file, normally looks for an SSH
 
183
            server on the Mandos client, and, if it find one, outputs
 
184
            a <option>checker</option> option to check for the
 
185
            client’s key fingerprint – this is more secure against
 
186
            spoofing.

            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
348
 
            of five minutes and thirty seconds.
 
344
            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as an RFC
 
345
            3339 duration; for example
 
346
            <quote><literal>P1Y2M3DT4H5M6S</literal></quote> meaning
 
347
            one year, two months, three days, four hours, five
 
348
            minutes, and six seconds.  Some values can be omitted, see
 
349
            RFC 3339 Appendix A for details.
