PLAINRSA-GEN(8) System Manager's Manual PLAINRSA-GEN(8) NAME plainrsa-gen -- generator for Plain RSA keys SYNOPSIS plainrsa-gen [-b bits] [-e pubexp] [-f outfile] [-h] DESCRIPTION plainrsa-gen can be used to generate Plain RSA keys for authentication pur- poses. Using Plain RSA keys is optional. Other possibilities are Pre-shared keys or X.509 certificates. -b bits bit length of the key. Default is 1024, recommended length is 2048 or even 4096 bits. Note that generating longer keys takes longer time. -e pubexp value of RSA public exponent. Default is 0x3. Don't change this unless you really know what you are doing! -f outfile outfile instead of stdout. If the file already exists it won't be overwritten. You wouldn't like to lose your private key by acci- dent, would you? OUTPUT FILE FORMAT This is the secret private key that should never leave your computer: : RSA { # RSA 1024 bits # pubkey=0sAQOrWlcwbAIdNSMhDt... Modulus: 0xab5a57306c021d3523... PublicExponent: 0x03 PrivateExponent: 0x723c3a2048... Prime1: 0xd309b30e6adf9d85c01... Prime2: 0xcfdc2a8aa5b2b3c90e3... Exponent1: 0x8cb122099c9513ae... Exponent2: 0x8a92c7071921cd30... Coefficient: 0x722751305eafe9... } The line pubkey=0sAQOrW... of the private key contains a public key that should be stored in the other peer's configuration in this format: : PUB 0sAQOrWlcwbAIdNSMhDt... You can also specify from and to addresses for which the key is valid: 0.0.0.0/0 10.20.30.0/24 : PUB 0sAQOrWlcwbAIdNSMhDt...
