pktool

pktool(1)							   User Commands							 pktool(1)

NAME

       pktool - manage softtoken object storage

SYNOPSIS

       pktool setpin

DESCRIPTION

       The pktool command allows users to manage the softtoken object store.

       The setpin subcommand changes the passphrase used to authenticate a user to the softtoken object store. setpin prompts the user for the old
       passphrase, if any. If the old passphrase matches, pktool prompts for the new passphrase twice. If the two entries of  the  new	passphrase
       match, it will become the current passphrase for the token.

       Passphrases may be any string of characters with lengths between 1 and 256 with no nulls.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	Successful completion.

       >0	An error occurred.

FILES

       ${HOME}/.sunw/pkcs11_softtoken

	   The user's default token object store.

       ${SOFTTOKEN_DIR}/pkcs11_softtoken

	   The alternate token object store.
