There are 3 sections:
#### settings
- `debug [0..3]`: Debug logging levels 0 (no logging) to 3 (too much logging)
- `debug [0..3]`: Debug logging levels 0 (no logging) to 3 (too much logging).
- `timeout`: Echo check timeout for watched connections.
#### ssh
- It's an ssh config file, so see `man ssh_config` for information. TunnelKeeper will connect to each host listed, and make sure every connection in `tunnelkeeper.conf` stays open in the background.
#### passwords
- `host password`: Passwords of the hosts in the ssh section. They are stored in plaintext, so don't use it if you can avoid it.
- There are 2 options that aren't available in normal ssh config files:
- `Watch` : Enables an echo test on the host at regular intervals.
- `Password` : Uses screen to log in with a password. This is **insecure**, since the password is in plaintext, so use passwordless auth if possible.
