newkey

NEWKEY(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						 NEWKEY(8)

NAME

     newkey -- create a new key in the publickey database

SYNOPSIS

     newkey -h hostname
     newkey -u username

DESCRIPTION

     The newkey utility is normally run by the network administrator on the Network Interface Service (NIS) master machine in order to establish
     public keys for users and super-users on the network.  These keys are needed for using secure RPC or secure NFS .

     The newkey utility will prompt for the login password of the given username and then create a new public/secret key pair in /etc/publickey
     encrypted with the login password of the given user.

     Use of this program is not required: users may create their own keys using chkey(1).

OPTIONS

     -h hostname
	     Create a new public key for the super-user at the given hostname.	Prompts for the root password of the given hostname.

     -u username
	     Create a new public key for the given username.  Prompts for the NIS password of the given username.

SEE ALSO

     chkey(1), keylogin(1), publickey(5), keyserv(8)

NOTES

     The Network Information Service (NIS) was formerly known as Sun Yellow Pages (YP).  The functionality of the two remains the same; only the
     name has changed.
