NAME

6       privatetopublic -- convert cjdns private keys to public keys and IP6
7

SYNOPSIS

9       /usr/libexec/cjdns/privatetopublic
10

DESCRIPTION

12       As  private keys are very sensitive, /usr/libexec/cjdns/privatetopublic
13       reads them from stdin.  If your shell, terminal, or other program keeps
14       history,  please avoid echo ´key´ | /usr/libexec/cjdns/privatetopublic,
15       or similar constructs.  A heredoc is suitable for use in  scripts,  and
16       will avoid unwanted revealing of the key in process lists, like so:
17
18
19           /usr/libexec/cjdns/privatetopublic <<EOF
20           key
21           EOF
22
23
24
25       Key  should  be  in  hex form, maximum 64 characters.  Extra characters
26       will be silently ignored.
