.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm 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.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Normally, root's key is read from the file
|
|
.Pa /etc/.rootkey
|
|
when the daemon is started.
|
|
This is useful during power-fail reboots
|
|
when no one is around to type a password.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If a client with no secret key calls
|
|
.Nm keyserv ,
|
|
then the key of user
|
|
.Em nobody
|
|
is used instead as the default key.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following options are available:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
Disable the use of default keys for
|
|
.Em nobody .
|
|
.It Fl D
|
|
Run in debugging mode and log all requests to
|
|
.Nm keyserv .
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
Root's secret key is not read from
|
|
.Pa /etc/.rootkey .
|
|
Instead,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
prompts the user for the password to decrypt
|
|
root's key stored in the
|
|
.Pa /etc/publickey
|
|
database and then stores the decrypted key in
|
|
.Pa /etc/.rootkey
|
|
for future use.
|
|
This option is useful if the
|
|
.Pa /etc/.rootkey
|
|
file ever gets out of date or corrupted.
|
|
.It Fl p Ar path
|
|
Specify where to search for
|
|
.Pa libdes.so.3 .
|
|
Default is
|
|
.Pa /usr/lib .
|
|
.It Fl v
|
|
Display status of DES support (enabled/disabled).
