NAME

       cmkkey - create secondary copy of CFS directory key

SYNOPSIS

       cmkkey olddir newdir

DESCRIPTION

       cmkkey   creates   a  secondary  copy  of  the  key  for  an  encrypted
       Cryptographic File  System  (CFS)  directory.   The  secondary  key  is
       initially  the  same  as  the original key, but can be changed with the
       cpasswd command.

       Only CFS 1.4 or later directories (and not created with cmkdir -o)  can
       have secondary key files.

FILES

       newdir/..k
              New secondary encyrpted key file.

       newdir/..data
              Link to encrypted directory olddir.

SEE ALSO

       cfsd(8), cattach(1), cmkdir(1), cpasswd(1)

BUGS

       Any  symbolic  links  in olddir are resolved at the time cmkkey is run;
       this could cause newdir/..data to break if one of  these  links  moves.
       (This can be fixed by re-linking to the correct place by hand).
