NAME
       mupdatetest - interactive MUPDATE test program

SYNOPSIS
       mupdatetest [ -p port ] [ -m mechanism ]
		   [ -a userid ] [ -u userid ] [ -k num ] [ -l num ]
		   [ -r realm ] [ -f file ] [ -n num ] [ -c ]
		   [ -i ] [ -o option=value ] [ -v ] hostname

DESCRIPTION
       mupdatetest  is	a utility that allows you to authenticate to a MUPDATE
       server and interactively issue commands to it. Once  authenticated  you
       may  issue any MUPDATE command by simply typing it in. It is capable of
       multiple SASL authentication mechanisms and handles  encryption	layers
       transparently.  This utility is often used for testing the operation of
       a mupdate server. Note that you must be an admin in order to  authenti‐
       cate to an mupdate server.

OPTIONS
       -p port
	      Port  to	connect	 to.  If  left off this defaults to mupdate as
	      defined in /etc/services.

       -m mechanism
	      Force mupdatetest to use mechanism for  authentication.  If  not
	      specified	 the  strongest	 authentication mechanism supported by
	      the server is chosen.

       -a userid
	      Userid to use for authentication; defaults to the current	 user.
	      This  is	the  userid whose password or credentials will be pre‐
	      sented to the server for verification.

       -u userid
	      Userid to use for authorization; defaults to the	current	 user.
	      This  is the userid whose identity will be assumed after authen‐
	      tication.	 NOTE: This is only used  with	SASL  mechanisms  that
	      allow proxying (e.g. PLAIN, DIGEST-MD5).

       -k num Minimum protection layer required.

       -l num Maximum protection layer to use (0=none; 1=integrity; etc).  For
	      example if you are using the KERBEROS_V4	authentication	mecha‐
	      nism  specifying	0  will force mupdatetest to not use any layer
	      and specifying 1 will force it to use the integrity  layer.   By
	      default the maximum supported protection layer will be used.

       -r realm
	      Specify  the  realm  to  use.  Certain authentication mechanisms
	      (e.g. DIGEST-MD5) may require one to specify the realm.

       -f file
	      Pipe file into connection after authentication.

       -n num Number of authentication attempts; default = 1.  The client will
	      attempt to fast reauth (e.g. DIGEST-MD5), if possible.

       -c     Enable  challenge	 prompt	 callbacks.   This  will cause the OTP
	      mechanism to ask for the the one-time password  instead  of  the
	      secret pass-phrase (library generates the correct response).

       -i     Don't  send an initial client response for SASL mechanisms, even
	      if the protocol supports it.

       -o option=value
	      Set the SASL option to value.

       -v     Verbose. Print out more information than usual.
