respond: |
4 |
|
5 |
respond takes the challenge from the server and creates a valid response |
6 |
to pass back to the server. |
7 |
|
8 |
Syntax: |
9 |
$ ./respond <private key> <challenge> [passphrase] |
10 |
|
11 |
Notes: |
12 |
|
13 |
The private key file is protected by a passphrase, entered when the key is |
14 |
created. The passphrase is prompted for whenever respond is called. |
15 |
|
16 |
Do not use mkkeypair to create a RSA key. The shell script will create it |
17 |
without a passphrase. |
18 |
|
19 |
If the passphrase is passed on the command line (insecure mode), the |
20 |
program will not prompt for a passphrase. This is primarily for running |
21 |
rsa_respond from a script. |

Compiling: |
24 |
|
25 |
Untar the distribution |
26 |
Read this document |
27 |
Run 'configure' (not so foolproof, tweak the Makefile if necessary) |
28 |
...and 'make' |
29 |
|
30 |
libcrypto from OpenSSL must be available in order to use this program. |

System support: |
33 |
respond compiles properly, and have been tested on FreeBSD 4.x, Linux glibc, |
34 |
Solaris 8, and Cygwin 1.2 or higher. |
