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

NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

ssh-pkcs11-helper [-v ]

DESCRIPTION

ssh-pkcs11-helper is used by ssh-agent1 to access keys provided by a PKCS#11 token.

ssh-pkcs11-helper is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from ssh-agent1.

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-agent1 will automatically pass the -v flag to ssh-pkcs11-helper when it has itself been placed in debug mode.

HISTORY

ssh-pkcs11-helper first appeared in Ox 4.7 .
