48 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | |
49 | .Nm | |
50 | can be used to generate | |
51 | .Li Plain RSA keys | |
52 | for authentication purposes. | |
53 | Using | |
54 | .Li Plain RSA keys | |
55 | is optional. | |
56 | Other possibilities are | |
57 | .Li Pre-shared keys | |
58 | or | |
59 | .Li X.509 certificates . | |
60 | .\" | |
61 | .Bl -tag -width Ds | |
62 | .It Fl b Ar bits | |
63 | bit length of the key. | |
64 | Default is | |
65 | .Li 1024 , | |
66 | recommended length is | |
67 | .Li 2048 | |
68 | or even | |
69 | .Li 4096 | |
70 | bits. | |
71 | Note that generating longer keys takes more time. | |
72 | .It Fl e Ar pubexp | |
73 | value of the RSA public exponent. | |
74 | Default is | |
75 | .Li 0x3 . | |
76 | Don't change this unless you really know what you are doing! | |
77 | .It Fl f Ar outfile | |
78 | write the resulting key to | |
79 | .Ar outfile | |
80 | instead of | |
81 | .Li stdout . | |
82 | If the file already exists it won't be overwritten. | |
83 | You wouldn't like to lose your private key by accident, would you? | |

86 | .Sh OUTPUT FILE FORMAT | |
87 | This is the secret | |

107 | The line | |
108 | .Li pubkey=0sAQOrW... | |
109 | of the | |
110 | .Li private key | |
111 | contains a | |
112 | .Li public key | |
113 | that should be stored in the other peer's configuration in this format: | |
114 | .Bd -literal | |
115 | : PUB 0sAQOrWlcwbAIdNSMhDt... | |

119 | You can also specify | |
120 | .Li from | |
121 | and | |
122 | .Li to | |
123 | addresses for which the key is valid: | |
124 | .Bd -literal | |
