11
13 opendkim-testkey verifies the setup of signing and verifying (private
14 and public) keys for use with opendkim(8).
15
16 The test program will read a domain name and selector from the command
17 line, configuration file or a key table, then query and parse the
18 resulting DKIM key(s), reporting any errors found.
19
20 If a key path is also provided, the test program will read the private
21 key named and attempt to confirm that the private key specified by key‐
22 path (or in the key table) and the public DKIM key retrieved match.
23
25 -d domain
26 Names the domain in which signing is to be done. More specifi‐
27 cally, names the domain in which the public key matching the
28 provided private key will be found. This parameter must be pro‐
29 vided either explicitly, or in the configuration file, or via a
30 KeyTable (see opendkim.conf(5) for details).
31
32 -k keypath
33 Specifies the path to the private key file which should be used
34 for this test. This parameter is optional
35
36 -s selector
37 Names the selector within the specified domain whose public key
38 should be retrieved and tested, comparing it to the private key
39 if provided. This parameter must be provided either explicitly,
40 or in the configuration file, or via a KeyTable (see opend‐
41 kim.conf(5) for details).
42
43 -v Increases the amount of output (verbosity) of the program. May
44 be specified multiple times for increased output.
45
46 -x conffile
47 Names a configuration file to be parsed. See the opend‐
48 kim.conf(5) man page for details. The only values used are
49 Domain, Selector, KeyFile, KeyTable, TrustAnchorFile and
50 UnboundConfigFile. The default is /etc/opendkim.conf.
51
53 The test program will also complain if a private key file is readable
54 by anyone other than the user executing the program.
