CCAT(8)			    System Manager's Manual		       CCAT(8)

NAME
       ccat

SYNOPSIS
       ccat [ -3ms ] file [ ...	]

DESCRIPTION
       ccat  prompts  for a passphrase and decrypts (onto standard output) the
       specified  CFS  encrypted  files.   If  a  corresponding	 CFS  IV  file
       (.pvect_*) file exists in the same directory, it	is used	to perturb the
       file accordingly.  By default, files are	decrypted using	standard 2-key
       hybrid  mode  single-DES.   The	-3  option specifies 2-key hybrid mode
       triple DES.  The	-m option specifies 1-key hybrid mode  MacGuffin,  and
       -s specifies SAFER-SK128.

       ccat  is	intended to assist in emergency	access to CFS directories when
       no machine running a CFS	daemon is available.  It is ordinarily used in
       conjunction with	cname(8).

SEE ALSO
       cname(8)

BUGS
       Does not	work with new format (1.3 and later) directories.

       This program is just blindingly slow.  There's no way to	tell if	an in-
       correct passphrase was entered, except that the	program	 will  produce
       garbage output.
