KEYLOGOUT(1) User Commands KEYLOGOUT(1)

NAME

keylogout - delete stored secret key with keyserv

SYNOPSIS

/usr/bin/keylogout [-f]

DESCRIPTION

keylogout deletes the key stored by the key server process
keyserv(8). Further access to the key is revoked; however, current
session keys might remain valid until they expire or are refreshed.


Deleting the keys stored by keyserv causes any background jobs or
scheduled at(1) jobs that need secure RPC services to fail. Since
only one copy of the key is kept on a machine, it is a bad idea to
place a call to this command in your .logout file since it affects
other sessions on the same machine.

OPTIONS

The following options are supported:

-f
Force keylogout to delete the secret key for the superuser. By
default, keylogout by the superuser is disallowed because it
would break all RPC services, such as NFS, that are started by
the superuser.
