      The file needs to list all clients that should be able to use
68
 
      the service.  All clients listed will be regarded as enabled,

      even if a client was disabled in a previous run of the server.
 
72
      the service.  The settings in this file can be overridden by
 
73
      runtime changes to the server, which it saves across restarts.

            still up.  Any output of the command will be ignored, only
167
 
            the exit code is checked:  If the exit code of the command

            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a

            space-separated number of values, each of which is a

            number and a one-character suffix.  The suffix must be one
335
 
            of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
336
 
            <quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
337
 
            minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively.  The values are
338
 
            added together to give the total time value, so all of

            <quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and

            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as an RFC

            one year, two months, three days, four hours, five
