       pktool - manage softtoken object storage

SYNOPSIS

       pktool setpin

DESCRIPTION

       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.
