=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
2005-12-13 19:21:13 +00:00
|
|
|
The B<kas stringtokey> command converts the character string specified
|
|
|
|
with the B<-string> argument into an octal string suitable for use as an
|
|
|
|
encryption key.
|
2005-12-08 12:14:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2005-12-13 19:21:13 +00:00
|
|
|
The B<kas> command interpreter generates the octal key by using an
|
|
|
|
encryption algorithm on the combination of the specified string and the
|
|
|
|
name of the local cell (as recorded in the local F</usr/vice/etc/ThisCell>
|
2005-12-08 12:14:33 +00:00
|
|
|
file). Use the B<-cell> argument to convert a string into a key
|
|
|
|
appropriate for a cell other than the local one.

=head1 CAUTIONS
|
2005-12-08 12:14:33 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This command writes the key to the standard output stream, on which it can
|
2005-12-13 19:21:13 +00:00
|
|
|
possibly be intercepted by third parties. It is not very secure to use the
|
|
|
|
key in an actual Authentication Database entry.

doc: replace hostnames with IETF example hostnames
There were several different real and made-up hostnames and company names used
throughout our documentation examples.
The IETF has reserved "example.com" and other "example" TLDs for use in
examples (RFC 2606). Replace almost all references to ABC Corporation, DEF
Corporation, and State University, as well as "abc.com", "bigcell.com",
"def.com", "def.gov", "ghi.com", "ghi.gov", "jkl.com", "mit.edu",
"stanford.edu", "state.edu", "stateu.edu", "uncc.edu", and "xyz.com".
Standardize on "Example Corporation", "Example Network", "Example
Organization" (example.com, example.net, and example.org).
The Scout documentation in the Admin Guide contains PNG images that contain
the old cell names, so I left those references until the images can be
replaced.
