See the section called \(lqOVERVIEW\(rq for details\&. .SH "OVERVIEW" .PP This is part of the Mandos system for allowing computers to have encrypted root file systems and at the same time be capable of remote and/or unattended reboots\&. The computers run a small client program in the initial RAM disk environment which will communicate with a server over a network\&. All network communication is encrypted using TLS\&. The clients are identified by the server using a TLS key; each client has one unique to it\&. The server sends the clients an encrypted password\&. The encrypted password is decrypted by the clients using a separate OpenPGP key, and the password is then used to unlock the root file system, whereupon the computers can continue booting normally\&. .PP This program is used to monitor and control the Mandos server\&. In particular, it can be used to approve Mandos clients which have been configured to require approval\&. It also shows all significant events reported by the Mandos server\&. .SH "KEYS" .PP This program is used to monitor and control the Mandos server\&. In particular, it can be used to approve Mandos clients which have been configured to require approval\&. It also shows all significant events reported by the Mandos server\&. .sp .it 1 an-trap .nr an-no-space-flag 1 .nr an-break-flag 1 .br .B Table\ \&1.\ \&Global Keys .TS allbox tab(:); lB lB.

Note that this list is public\&. The developers can be reached privately at (OpenPGP key fingerprint 153A 37F1 0BBA 0435 987F 2C4A 7223 2973 CA34 C2C4 for encrypted mail)\&. .SH "EXAMPLE" .PP This program takes no options: .PP \fBmandos\-monitor\fR .SH "SECURITY" .PP This program must be permitted to access the Mandos server via the D\-Bus interface\&. This normally requires the root user, but could be configured otherwise by reconfiguring the D\-Bus server\&. .SH "SEE ALSO" .PP \fBintro\fR(8mandos), \fBmandos\fR(8), \fBmandos-ctl\fR(8) .SH "COPYRIGHT" .br Copyright \(co 2010-2019 Teddy Hogeborn, Bj\(:orn P\(oahlsson .br .PP This manual page is part of Mandos\&. .PP Mandos is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) any later version\&. .PP Mandos is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE\&.
