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

NAME

     systemkeychain -- creates system keychains and allows keychains to unlock keychains

SYNOPSIS

     systemkeychain [-fv] [-k filename] [-C] [password]
     systemkeychain [-fvc] [-k filename] [-s] [file ...]
     systemkeychain [-v] [-k filename] [-t]

DESCRIPTION

     The systemkeychain can be used to create a system keychain, make it possible for a keychain to unlock another keychain, or test unlocking a
     keychain.

     The options are as follows:

     -C      Create a keychain and establish it in the system as the primary system keychain whose unlocking is automatically handled by the sys-
	     tem. The new keychain is empty. If the optional password argument is given, the keychain can be also be unlocked with that; other-
	     wise, the keychain has no password and can only be unlocked by the system.  The optional password option is generally used for test-
	     ing purposes, and using it is not recommended.

     -s      Extract the master secret from source keychain(s) and install them in a destination keychain to allow unlocking.

     -t      Test unlocking the system keychain.

     -k systemKeychain
	     Use a keychain other than the default as the destination system keychain.

     -c      Create the target keychain if necessary.

     -f      Force creation of a system keychain or overwriting of an existing key for keychain unlocking keychain operations.

     -v      Turn on verbose mode.

     By default, systemkeychain works with the keychain file stored at /Library/Keychains/System.keychain .  Use of the -k option can specify a
     different target file.

     Use of the -s option allows keychains to be setup to unlock other keychains.  Chains of keychain unlocks can be setup in this manner to make
     a series of keychains unlock while only needing to manually unlock the first one.	This functionality can be verified with the -t (test
     unlock) option.
