NAME
       netkey - calculate response to authentication challenge

SYNOPSIS
       netkey

DESCRIPTION
       Netkey calculates a response to a challenge made by a system to authen‐
       ticate a user, based on a shared	 secret	 (password),  using  the  same
       algorithm  as  a	 SecureNet device.  It reads and writes /dev/cons.  It
       prompts once for the secret (echo is turned off).  It  then  repeatedly
       prompts	for a remote system's challenge, and once given it, calculates
       and prints the corresponding response.  It exits on an empty  challenge
       or end of file.
