AUTH2(8)							      AUTH2(8)

NAME
       auth2 - Coda authentication server

SYNOPSIS
       auth2  [	 -r  ]	[  -chk	 ] [ -x debuglevel ] [ -p passwordfile ] [ -tk
       tokenkey ] [ -fk filekey ]

DESCRIPTION
       auth2 is the Coda authentication	 server.   Clients  need  to  have  an
       authentication  token  from  auth2  in order to establish authenticated
       connections to Coda file servers.

       auth2 supports the following commands line options:

       -r     Tells auth2 to print log entries to the controlling  tty	rather
	      than a log file.

       -chk   Causes  auth2  to only validate passwords.  New password entries
	      cannot be added via this server instance.	 Servers started  with
	      the -chk option are slave servers. There should only be one mas‐
	      ter server (SCM) in the system.

       -x     Sets the server debuglevel. This level controls  the  amount  of
	      debugging information printed by the server.

       -p     Used  to	tell  auth2 where its password file is. Typically this
	      file is /vice/db/auth2.pw.

       -tk    Specifies where the tokenkey file is found  which	 auth2	should
	      use    when   encrypting	 tokens.   Normally   this   file   is
	      /vice/db/auth2.tk

       -fk    Name of file containing the key to  decrypt  the	password  file
	      with.
