NAME

6       westcos-tool - utility for manipulating data structures on westcos
7       smart cards

SYNOPSIS

10       westcos-tool [OPTIONS]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       The westcos-tool utility is used to manipulate the westcos data
14       structures on 2 Ko smart cards / tokens. Users can create PINs, keys
15       and certificates stored on the card / token. User PIN authentication is
16       performed for those operations that require it.
17

OPTIONS

19       --change-pin, -n
20           Changes a PIN stored on the card. User authentication is required
21           for this operation.
22
23       --certificate file, -t file
24           Write certificate file file in PEM format to the card. User
25           authentication is required for this operation.
26
27       --finalize, -f
28           Finalize the card. Once finalized the default key is invalidated,
29           so PIN and PUK cannot be changed anymore without user
30           authentication.
31
32           Warning, un-finalized cards are insecure because the PIN can be
33           changed without user authentication (knowledge of default key is
34           enough).
35
36       --generate-key, -g
37           Generate a private key on the card. The card must not have been
38           finalized and a PIN must be installed (i.e. the file for the PIN
39           must have been created, see option -i). By default the key length
40           is 1536 bits. User authentication is required for this operation.
41
42       --help, -h
43           Print help message on screen.
44
45       --install-pin, -i
46           Install PIN file in on the card. You must provide a PIN value with
47           -x.
48
49       --key-length length, -l length
50           Change the length of private key. Use with -g.
51
52       --overwrite-key, -o
53           Overwrite the key if there is already a key on the card.
54
55       --pin-value value, -x value
56           Set value of PIN. If set to env:VARIABLE, the value of the
57           environment variable VARIABLE is used.
58
59       --puk-value value, -y value
60           set value of PUK (or value of new PIN for change PIN command see
61           -n). If set to env:VARIABLE, the value of the environment variable
62           VARIABLE is used.
63
64       --read-file filename, -j filename
65           Read the file filename from the card. The file is written on disk
66           with name filename. User authentication is required for this
67           operation.
68
69       --reader num, -r num
70           Specify the reader to use. By default, the first reader with a
71           present card is used. If num is an ATR, the reader with a matching
72           card will be chosen.
73
74       --unblock-pin, -u
75           Unblocks a PIN stored on the card. Knowledge of the PIN Unblock Key
76           (PUK) is required for this operation.
77
78       --verbose -v
79           Causes westcos-tool to be more verbose. Specify this flag several
80           times to enable debug output in the OpenSC library.
81
82       --wait, -w
83           Wait for a card to be inserted.
84
85       --write-file filename, -k filename
86           Put the file with name filename from disk to card. On the card the
87           file is written in filename. User authentication is required for
88           this operation.
