beid-pkcs11-tool(1) Belgium beid-pkcs11-tool(1)NAME
beid-pkcs11-tool - generic smart card utility
SYNOPSIS
beid-pkcs11-tool [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
The beid-pkcs11-tool utility can be used from the command line to perform miscellaneous operations on the Belgium eID PKCS11 library, such
as changing your PIN or testing the library.
OPTIONS --show-info, -I
Show global token information
--list-slots, -L
List the available slots
--list-mechanisms, -M
List the mechanisms supported by the token
--list-objects, -O
List the objects on the token
--login, -l
Log into the token first (not needed when using --pin)
--pin pin, -r pin
Supply the PIN on the command line
--change-pin, -c
Change the PIN
--slot slot
Specify number of the slot to use
--module module
Specify PKCS11 library to use (default = libbeidpkcs11.so)
--test, -t
Test (best used with the --login or --pin option)

pkcs11-tool - utility for managing and using PKCS #11 security tokens
SYNOPSIS
pkcs11-tool [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
The pkcs11-tool utility is used to manage the data objects on smart cards and similar PKCS #11 security tokens. Users can list and read
PINs, keys and certificates stored on the token. User PIN authentication is performed for those operations that require it.
OPTIONS --attr-from path
Extract information from path (DER-encoded certificate file) and create the corresponding attributes when writing an object to the
token. Example: the certificate subject name is used to create the CKA_SUBJECT attribute.
--change-pin, -c
Change the user PIN on the token
--hash, -h
Hash some data.
--id id, -d id
Specify the id of the object to operate on.
--init-pin
Initializes the user PIN. This option differs from --change-pin in that it sets the user PIN for the first time. Once set, the user PIN
can be changed using --change-pin.
--init-token
Initialize a token: set the token label as well as a Security Officer PIN (the label must be specified using --label).
--input-file path, -i path
Specify the path to a file for input.
--keypairgen, -k
Generate a new key pair (public and private pair.)
--label name, -a name
Specify the name of the object to operate on (or the token label when --init-token is used).
--list-mechanisms, -M
Display a list of mechanisms supported by the token.
--list-objects, -O
Display a list of objects.
--list-slots, -L
Display a list of available slots on the token.
--login, -l
Authenticate to the token before performing other operations. This option is not needed if a PIN is provided on the command line.
--mechanism mechanism, -m mechanism
Use the specified mechanism for token operations. See -M for a list of mechanisms supported by your token.
--module mod
Specify a PKCS#11 module (or library) to load.
--moz-cert path, -z path
Test a Mozilla-like keypair generation and certificate request. Specify the path to the certificate file.
--output-file path, -o path
Specify the path to a file for output.
--pin pin, -p pin
Use the given pin for token operations. WARNING: Be careful using this option as other users may be able to read the command line from
the system or if it is embedded in a script.
This option will also set the --login option.
--set-id id, -e id
Set the CKA_ID of the object.
--show-info, -I
Display general token information.
--sign, -s
Sign some data.
--slot id
Specify the id of the slot to use.
--slot-description description
Specify the description of the slot to use.
--slot-index index
Specify the index of the slot to use.
--token-label label
Specify the label of token. Will be used the first slot, that has the inserted token with this label.
--so-pin pin
Use the given pin as the Security Officer PIN for some token operations (token initialization, user PIN initialization, etc). The same
warning as --pin also applies here.
--test, -t
Perform some tests on the token. This option is most useful when used with either --login or --pin.
--type type, -y type
Specify the type of object to operate on. Examples are cert, privkey and pubkey.
--verbose, -v
Cause pkcs11-tool to be more verbose.
NB! This does not affect OpenSC debugging level! To set OpenSC PKCS#11 module into debug mode, set the OPENSC_DEBUG environment
variable to a non-zero number.
--write-object id, -w path
Write a key or certificate object to the token. path points to the DER-encoded certificate or key file.
