sc_auth(8)                BSD System Manager's Manual               sc_auth(8)

NAME
     sc_auth -- SmartCard authorization setup script

SYNOPSIS
     sc_auth pair   [-v] -u user -h hash
     sc_auth unpair [-v] [-u user] [-h hash]
     sc_auth pairing_ui [-v] [-f] [-s enable|disable|status]
     sc_auth identities
     sc_auth list   [-v] [-u user] [-d domain]
     sc_auth changepin [-t tokenid] [-u]
     sc_auth list

SYNOPSIS - legacy
     sc_auth accept [-v] [-u user] [-d domain] [-k keyname]
     sc_auth accept [-v] [-u user] [-d domain] -h hash
     sc_auth remove [-v] [-u user] [-d domain]
     sc_auth hash   [-k keyname]

DESCRIPTION
     sc_auth configures a local user account to permit authentication using a
     supported SmartCard.  Authentication is via asymmetric key (also known as
     public-key) encryption.  sc_auth works with signing keys, but not encryp-
     tion keys.

     sc_auth can perform the following actions:

     pair     Associate a user with a public key. Because user's keychain will
              be modified to be unlockable by a key, SmartCard with that key
              must be present in the reader. The key to use has to be speci-
              fied by its hash.

     unpair   Remove association with a user and keychain. If no specific hash
              is provided, all associations with a user are removed.

     pairing_ui
              Enable, disable and force to display pairing dialog when card
              with unpaired identities is inserted

     identities
              List all identities on all SmartCards and display appropriate
              associations with users (for associated keys) or key names (for
              unassociated keys).

     list     List all public keys associated with a user.

     changepin
              Change or unblock SmartCard PIN.  This command works only for
              Personal Identity Verification (PIV) SmartCards. With -u argu-
              ment, PIN can be unblocked using PUK and without the -u argu-
              ment, PIN can be changed. Optional -t argument allows specifying
              tokenID.

DESCRIPTION - legacy
     sc_auth can perform the following legacy actions:

     accept   Associate a user with a public key on a card.  The key to use
              can be specified either by its name or its hash.

     remove   Remove all public keys associated with a user.

     hash     Print the hashes for all keys on all inserted cards.

OPTIONS
     -u user  Specifies the user whose account is to be modified

     -d domain
              Specifies the directory domain containing the user account

     -k keyname
              Specifies a public key by its name

     -h hash  Specifies a public key by its hash

     -v       Verbose mode

     -f       Force to display pairing dialog

NOTES
     sc_auth is a shell script.  It is intended to be modified by administra-
     tors to suit their local environments.

     sc_auth is only known to work with a local directory.  Consult the
     script's source for some limited guidance to using remote directories.
