| 188 | The program also asks for a passphrase. |
| 189 | The passphrase may be empty to indicate no passphrase |
Ben Lindstrom | bf555ba | 2001-01-18 02:04:35 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 190 | (host keys must have an empty passphrase), or it may be a string of |
Damien Miller | 450a7a1 | 2000-03-26 13:04:51 +1000 | [diff] [blame] | 191 | arbitrary length. |
Ben Lindstrom | 4e366d5 | 2001-12-06 16:43:21 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 192 | A passphrase is similar to a password, except it can be a phrase with a |

Damien Miller | 450a7a1 | 2000-03-26 13:04:51 +1000 | [diff] [blame] | 204 | There is no way to recover a lost passphrase. |
Damien Miller | 085c90f | 2011-05-05 14:15:33 +1000 | [diff] [blame] | 205 | If the passphrase is lost or forgotten, a new key must be generated |

| 753 | Finally, certificates may be defined with a validity lifetime. |

| 771 | is able to manage OpenSSH format Key Revocation Lists (KRLs). |

Damien Miller | 1379771 | 2013-12-29 17:47:14 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 773 | compact format, taking as little as one bit per certificate if they are being |

Damien Miller | 881a7a2 | 2013-01-20 22:34:46 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 779 | This option reads one or more files from the command line and generates a new |
Damien Miller | f3747bf | 2013-01-18 11:44:04 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 780 | KRL. |
| 781 | The files may either contain a KRL specification (see below) or public keys, |
| 782 | listed one per line. |
| 783 | Plain public keys are revoked by listing their hash or contents in the KRL and |
| 784 | certificates revoked by serial number or key ID (if the serial is zero or |
| 785 | not available). |
| 786 | .Pp |
| 787 | Revoking keys using a KRL specification offers explicit control over the |
| 788 | types of record used to revoke keys and may be used to directly revoke |
| 789 | certificates by serial number or key ID without having the complete original |
| 790 | certificate on hand. |
| 791 | A KRL specification consists of lines containing one of the following directives |
| 792 | followed by a colon and some directive-specific information. |

| 886 | Theo de Raadt and Dug Song |
| 887 | removed many bugs, re-added newer features and |
| 888 | created OpenSSH. |
| 889 | Markus Friedl contributed the support for SSH |
| 890 | protocol versions 1.5 and 2.0. |
