|
.B keyserv
|
||
|
|
is a daemon that is used for storing the
|
||
|
|
private encryption keys of each
|
||
|
|
user logged into the system.
|
||
|
|
These encryption keys are used for accessing
|
||
|
|
secure network services such as secure NFS.
|
||
|
|
.P
|
||
|
|
Normally, root's key is read from the file
|
||
|
|
.B /etc/.rootkey
|
||
|
|
when the daemon is started.
|
||
|
|
This is useful during power-fail reboots
|
||
|
|
when no one is around to type a password.
|
||
|
|
.P
|
||
|
|
If a client with no secret key calls
|
||
|
|
.BR keyserv ,
|
||
|
|
then the key of user
|
||
|
|
.B nobody
|
||
|
|
is used instead as the default key.

||
|

.B \-n
|
||
|
|
Root's secret key is not read from
|
||
|
|
.BR /etc/.rootkey .
|
||
|
|
Instead,
|
||
|
|
.B keyserv
|
||
|
|
prompts the user for the password to decrypt
|
||
|
|
root's key stored in the
|
||
|
|
.B /etc/publickey
|
||
|
|
database and then stores the decrypted key in
|
||
|
|
.B /etc/.rootkey
|
||
|
|
for future use.
|
||
|
|
This option is useful if the
|
||
|
|
.B /etc/.rootkey
|
||
|
|
file ever gets out of date or corrupted.
