NAME
sc_auth -- smart card authorization setup script
SYNOPSIS
sc_auth accept [-v] [-u user] [-d domain] [-k keyname] sc_auth accept [-v] [-u user] [-d domain] -h hash sc_auth remove [-v] [-u user] [-d domain] sc_auth hash [-k keyname] sc_auth list [-v] [-u user] [-d domain]
DESCRIPTION
sc_auth configures a local user account to permit authentication using a supported smart card. Authentication is via asymmetric key (also known as public-key) encryption. sc_auth works with signing keys, but not encryption keys. sc_auth can perform the following actions: accept Associate a user with a public key on a card. The key to use can be specified either by its name or its hash. remove Remove all public keys associated with a user. hash Print the hashes for all keys on all inserted cards. list List all public keys associated with a user.
OPTIONS
-u user Specifies the user whose account is to be modified -d domain Specifies the directory domain containing the user account -k keyname Specifies a public key by its name -h hash Specifies a public key by its hash -v Verbose mode
NOTES
sc_auth is a shell script. It is intended to be modified by administra- tors to suit their local environments. sc_auth is only known to work with a local directory. Consult the script's source for some limited guidance to using remote directories.
BUGS
sc_auth hash might display the hashes of encryption keys as well as sign- ing keys, even though sc_auth accept does not work with encryption keys. MacOSX December 11, 2006 MacOSX
