Either. We accept "yes", "on", "1", "true" as positive booleans and "no", "off", "0", "false" as negative booleans whenever there's a boolean to parse. This is documented at a variety of places (for example systemd.unit(5)), but not specifically for logind.conf. I can see that it would be helpful to explain this in logind.conf(5) too, but I also kinda like keeping things short and avoid beeing too redundant. Could you adapt either default logind.conf or the man page so that the same values are used in both? It was troubling for me having different informations in both places. It’s a good thing that all are accepted. An other solution would be to have in the documentation something like «these are boolean, see systemd.unit(5) for more information» to avoid redundance and be sure people have all information about boolean handling. |
