  • NAME
      [/etc/]opiekeys - OPIE database of user key information
  • DESCRIPTION
      The opiekeys file contains user information used by the OPIE software to authenticate users. The opiekeys file is backwards compatible with the S/Key /etc/skeykeys database file, but only if the hashing algorithm (MD4 and MD5) is the same between S/Key and OPIE (i.e., MD5 OPIE cannot use MD4 S/Key keys). The opiekeys file consists of six fields separated by spaces (tabs are properly interpreted, but spaces should be used instead) as follows: 

      
Field    Description
      

name     User's login name.
      

sequence User's sequence number.
      

seed     User's seed.
      

key      User's last response (hex).
      

date     Last change date.
      

time     Last change time.
