TARSNAP-KEYGEN(1)TARSNAP-KEYGEN(1)NAMEtarsnap-keygen - generate a key file for use with tarsnap(1)SYNOPSIStarsnap-keygen--keyfile key-file --user user-name --machine machine-
name [--passphrased] [--passphrase-mem maxmem]
DESCRIPTIONtarsnap-keygen generates cryptographic keys, registers with the tarsnap
server, and writes a key file for use with tarsnap(1).
The --keyfile, --user, and --machine parameters are all required.
If the --passphrased option is specified, the user will be prompted to
enter a passphrase (twice) to be used to encrypt the key file.
If the --passphrase-mem maxmem option is specified, a maximum of maxmem
bytes of RAM will be used in the scrypt key derivation function to
encrypt the key file; it may be necessary to set this option if a key
file is being generated on a system with far more RAM than the system
on which the key file will be used.
