pkidaemon(1)
π pkidaemon β the manual page, but make it cute
okay so real talk: this is pkidaemon, a little tool from the pkidaemon manual that manages PKI instances. she's β¨iconicβ¨ but also extremely niche, and honestly? we respect that. π
β¨ NAME β¨
pkidaemon β manages PKI instances ποΈπ
Like, that's the whole job. She manages PKI instances. That's her lane. Periodt.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
pkidaemon start <instance-name>
β οΈ heads up, bestie: even though this tool currently lives in the /usr/bin directory, you gotta run it with super user privileges to actually use it properly. yes, really. no cap. the directory location is giving "casual lil binary" but the vibe check says root. π
π DESCRIPTION π
so the pkidaemon start argument is β as of right now β only used internally by the systemctl scripts. π«Ά
translation: she's not really out here for you to call directly, she's backstage, doing the work, main character energy but off-camera. if you were thinking "ooh let me run pkidaemon start myself," just know she's currently booked and busy with systemctl. π
π¦ SEE ALSO π¦
go read those too, they're the friend group. π
