YAPET_CONFIG(5) File Formats YAPET_CONFIG(5)
NAME
yapet_config - format of YAPET configuration file
DESCRIPTION
yapet(1) reads the configuration file $HOME/.yapet if it exists unless
a different file is specified by using the -r option (see yapet(1)).
Options given on the command line override options given in a
configuration file.
The configuration file has the following syntax:
option=value
where option can be any of the following:
colors
(String) Set custom colors. See yapet_colors(5) for more
information.
load
(String) The file to load upon start of yapet.
Equivalent to providing a filename when invoking yapet.
A ~ (tilde) sign as the first character of the pathname will be
replaced by the home directory of the user running yapet.
Default: not set
locktimeout
(Integer) A positive integer specifying the time of inactivity in
seconds until the screen is locked.
Equivalent to providing the -t option when invoking yapet.
Default: 600
pwinputtimeout
(Integer) A positive integer specifying the time of inactivity in
seconds until the password prompt for unlocking the screen will
disappear.
Default: 60
allowlockquit
(Boolean) A value of true allows the user to quit yapet from the
locked screen (if no changes are pending). A value of false
prevents the user from quitting yapet when the screen is locked.
Default: true
checkfsecurity
(Boolean) A value of true enables the verification of the file
owner and permissions when loading a file. A value of false
disables the verification of the file owner and permissions when
loading a file.
Equivalent to providing the -S (same as true) or -s (same as false)
options when invoking yapet.
Default: true
pwgen_rng
(String) The random number generator used to generate passwords.
Possible values are
devrandom
Request using /dev/random. This is a high-quality random number
generator. However, if the system lacks entropy, reading from
this device may block, thus making yapet unresponsive.
devurandom
Request using /dev/urandom. This is a quality random number
generator similar to /dev/random but not of the same quality.
Using this random number generator will not block as opposite
to /dev/random.
lrand48
Request using lrand48. This is a low-quality random number
generator and should be used only if none of the above two
random number generators are available.
rand
Request using rand. This is a last resort random number
generator and should not be used.
If the random number generator requested is not available on the
system, yapet takes the next best random number generator.
Default: devurandom
pwgen_pwlen
(Integer) A positive integer greater than zero specifying the
default password length used by the Password Generator Dialog.
Default: 15
pwgen_letters
(Boolean) A value of true will preselect the Letters check box of
the Password Generator Dialog. false does not preselect the
Letters check box.
Default: true
pwgen_digits
(Boolean) A value of true will preselect the Digits check box of
the Password Generator Dialog. false does not preselect the Digits
check box.
Default: true
pwgen_punct
(Boolean) A value of true will preselect the Punctuation check box
of the Password Generator Dialog. false does not preselect the
Punctuation check box.
Default: true
pwgen_special
(Boolean) A value of true will preselect the Special check box of
the Password Generator Dialog. false does not preselect the
Special check box.
Default: true
pwgen_other
(Boolean) A value of true will preselect Other check box of the
Password Generator Dialog. false does not preselect the Other
check box.
Default: false
For Boolean values, 1, yes, true, enable, and enabled denote true. 0,
false, no, disable, disabled denote false. Please note, Boolean values
are case-sensitive.
See the section called “EXAMPLES” for examples of configuration files.
EXAMPLES
Example 1. Example of an yapet configuration file
load=/home/joe/passwords
locktimeout=300
checkfsecurity=0
pwgen_pwlen=8
In this example, the file /home/joe/passwords will be loaded upon
invocation of yapet. The timeout until the screen is locked is set to
300 seconds. File permissions will not be verified.
The Password Generator Dialog will have preset the Password Length to 8
characters.
Example 2. Example of an yapet configuration file
locktimeout=150
checkfsecurity=yes
pwgen_other=enable
In this example, no file will be automatically loaded upon invocation
of yapet. The timeout until the screen is locked is set to 150 seconds.
File permissions and owner will be verified.
The Password Generator Dialog will have preset the Other check box
checked.
Example 3. Example 1 revisited
load=~/passwords.pet
locktimeout=300
checkfsecurity=false
pwgen_pwlen=8
This example has the same effect as Example 1, “Example of an yapet
configuration file”. But instead of specifying the full path to the
home directory, the ~ (tilde) sign is used, which is expanded to the
home directory automatically. The .pet suffix can be specified, but if
omitted it will be appended automatically.
FILES
$HOME/.yapet
The per-user configuration file. If existing, options are read from
this file but can be overridden by the command line options.
Processing of this file can be disabled by invoking yapet with the
-i option.
