OPIEKEYS(5)		       File Formats Manual		     OPIEKEYS(5)

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  fol-
     lows:

     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.
