PKCSCONF(1)

💖 PKCSCONF 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the manual page for pkcsconf — she's a 1 in the PKCSCONF(1) section, and she ships with openCryptoki, and honestly? she's the configuration utility for the pkcsslotd daemon. that's the whole vibe. 👑

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

pkcsconf [-itsmlIupPh] [-c slotnumber -U userPIN -S SOPin -n newpin]

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so like, the pkcsconf utility is literally the girl who shows you and rearranges the state of the pkcsslotd daemon and all the tokens the daemon is managing. display queen. configure queen. both. 💅

🎀 COMMAND SUMMARY 🎀

no gatekeeping, here's every flag, and yes we're doing all of them:

• -i — display PKCS11 info ✨
• -t — display token info 🪪
• -s — display slot info 🗂️
• -m — display mechanism list ⚙️
• -l — display slot description 📝
• -I — initialize token 🌱
• -u — initialize user PIN 🔐
• -p — set the user PIN 🔑
• -P — set the SO PIN 🛡️
• -c SLOT — specify the token slot for the operation 🎯
• -U USERPIN — the current user pin, for use when changing the user pin, so that's the -u and -p options. if you don't specify it, user will be prompted 👀
• -S SOPIN — the current Security Officer (SO) pin, for use when changing the SO pin, so that's the -P option. if you don't specify it, user will be prompted 👀
• -n NEWPIN — the new pin, for use when changing either the user pin or the SO pin, so that's the -u, -p and -P options. if you don't specify it, user will be prompted 👀
• -h — show usage information 📖

ngl bestie, notice how -U, -S and -n all go "if not specified, user will be prompted" — so you can just let her ask you, no cap. 🫶
