-.TH KEYSERV 8C "9 September 1987"
-.SH NAME
-keyserv \- server for storing public and private keys
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B keyserv
-[
-.B \-n
-]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.IX "keyenvoy server" "" "\fLkeyenvoy\fP server"
-.B keyserv
-is a daemon that is used for storing the
-private encryption keys of each
-user logged into the system. These encryption
-keys are using for accessing
-secure network services such as secure
-.SM NFS\s0.
-When a user logs in to the system, the
-.BR login(1)
-program uses the login password to decrypt
-the user's encryption key stored
-in the Yellow Pages, and then gives the decrypted key to the
-.B keyserv
-daemon to store away.
-.LP
-Normally, root's key is read from the file
-.B /etc/.rootkey
-when the daemon starts up. This is useful during power-fail reboots
-when no one is around to type a password, yet you still want the
-secure network services to operate normally.
-.SH OPTIONS
