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.

ssh-pkcs11-helper first appeared in OpenBSD 4.7.
