NAME

       srp-gen - generate a password verifier for the SRP protocol.

SYNOPSIS

       srp-gen [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents briefly the srp-gen command.  This manual
       page was written for the  Debian  GNU/Linux  distribution  because  the
       original  program  does  not  have  a  manual  page.   Instead,  it has
       documentation in the GNU Info format; see below.

       srp-gen is a program that generates a password verifier for the  Secure
       Remote  Password  protocol.  The  password verifier should be stored as
       ~/.lsh/srp-verifier on the target (remote) machine on which you want to
       authenticate using SRP.

       For  more  information  about  SRP,  see the "srp" node of the "Getting
       started" section of the Lsh manual available via the info system.
