SSH-PKCS11-HELPER(8) Maintenance Commands and Procedures

NAME


ssh-pkcs11-helper - OpenSSH helper for PKCS#11 support

SYNOPSIS


ssh-pkcs11-helper [-v]

DESCRIPTION


ssh-pkcs11-helper is used by ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), and ssh-keygen(1) to
access keys provided by a PKCS#11 token.

ssh-pkcs11-helper is not intended to be invoked directly by the user.

A single option is supported:

-v Verbose mode. Causes ssh-pkcs11-helper to print debugging
messages about its progress. This is helpful in debugging
problems. Multiple -v options increase the verbosity. The
maximum is 3.

Note that ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), and ssh-keygen(1) will
automatically pass the -v flag to ssh-pkcs11-helper when they
have themselves been placed in debug mode.

SEE ALSO


ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), ssh-keygen(1)

HISTORY


ssh-pkcs11-helper first appeared in OpenBSD 4.7.
