If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain. (Resetting a keychain sets aside the original default keychain file and creates a new one.)
Can anyone tell me how to set up ssh and keychain so when I connect to the remote system it uses keychain for the password or public key? The remote system is FreeBSD 8.0. Do I need to setup anything else on that end?
Cheers. (0 Replies)

A command-line tool to administer smartcards and other token-based keychains.
OPTIONS -h With no arguments, shows a list of all commands. If arguments are provided, shows usage for each of the specified commands. Same
as the help command.
-q Makes tokenadmin less verbose.

help Shows all commands.
create-fv-user -u short-name -l long-name [-p password]
Creates a new FileVaulted user protected by the inserted smart card or token.
Options:
-u short-name
Specify the short (i.e., login) name to be used for the account.
-l long-name
Specify the full name to be used for the account. If the full name contains spaces, the name must be enclosed by
quotation marks.
-p password
Password for the user's login keychain (optional).
EXAMPLE
tokenadmin create-fv-user -u fvtest3 -p foo -l "FV Test User 3"
Create a new FileVaulted user with short name "fvtest3" and full name "FV Test User 3", with the new FileVault image being protected by the
inserted token. The password for the user's login keychain is "foo". Note: after creating this user with tokenadmin, you must run "sc_auth
accept -u fvtest3" or this user will not be able to log in.
SEE ALSO security(1), sc_auth(8), systemkeychain(8)NOTES
tokenadmin will eventually be merged into the security(1) command.
