      The file needs to list all clients that should be able to use

      the service.  All clients listed will be regarded as enabled,

      even if a client was disabled in a previous run of the server.

      the service.  The settings in this file can be overridden by
 
74
      runtime changes to the server, which it saves across restarts.

168
 
            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

            of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
337
 
            <quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
338
 
            minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively.  The values are
339
 
            added together to give the total time value, so all of

            <quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
342
 
            <quote><literal>5m 30s</literal></quote> will give a value
343
 
            of five minutes and thirty seconds.
 
348
            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
