NAME

6       dkim-testkey - DKIM filter installation test
7

SYNOPSIS

9       dkim-testkey -d domain -s selector [-k keypath]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       dkim-testkey  verifies  the setup of signing and verifying (private and
13       public) keys for use with dkim-filter(8).
14
15       The test program will read a domain name and selector from the  command
16       line, then query and parse the resulting DKIM key, reporting any errors
17       found.
18
19       If a key path is also provided, the test program will read the  private
20       key named and attempt to confirm that the private key specified by key‐
21       path and the public DKIM key retrieved match.
22

OPTIONS

24       -d domain
25              Names the domain in which signing is to be done.  More  specifi‐
26              cally,  names  the  domain  in which the public key matching the
27              provided private key will be found.  This parameter must be pro‐
28              vided.
29
30       -k keypath
31              Specifies  the path to the private key file which should be used
32              for this test.  This parameter is optional.
33
34       -s selector
35              Names the selector within the specified domain whose public  key
36              should  be  retrieved  and compared to the private key provided.
37              This parameter must be provided.
38

NOTES

40       The test program will also complain if the private key file is readable
41       by anyone other than the user executing the program.
42
43       Other sanity checks may be added in later versions.
