NAME¶
ekey-setkey - Entropy Key Long Term Key programmer
SYNOPSIS¶
ekey-setkey [
-s SerialNumber] [
-m MasterKey]
path
DESCRIPTION¶
ekey-setkey is a low level tool which sets the long-term key of an
Entropy Key using its Master Key. The keyring is updated with the new session
key. Any running ekeyd will not be updated with the new key and may interfere
with the re-keying process. Users may use the ekey-rekey tool instead as this
performs the relevant ekeydctl operations to ensure any running ekeyd is
updated apropriately.
This is a tool for advanced users only. Most users should use
ekey-rekey
instead.
OPTIONS¶
- -s
- Specifies the serial number of the key to re-key.
- -m
- Specifies the Master Key of the device
- path
- Specifies which device node to use to access the Entropy Key.
