NAME
     otp -- manages one-time passwords

SYNOPSIS
     otp [-dhlor] [-f algorithm] [-u user] sequence-number seed

DESCRIPTION
     The  otp  program	initializes  and updates your current series of one-time
     passwords (OTPs).

     Use this to set a new series of one-time passwords.  Only perform	this  on
     the console or over an encrypted link as you will have to supply your pass-
     phrase.  The other two parameters are sequence-number and seed.

     Options are:

     -d      To delete a one-time password.

     -f      Choose  a	different  algorithm from the default md5.  Pick any of:
	     md4, md5, and sha.

     -h      For getting a help message.

     -l      List the current table of one-time passwords.

     -o      To open (unlock) the otp-entry for a user.

     -r      To renew a one-time password series.  This operation  can	be  per-
	     formed  over  an  potentially  eavesdropped link because you do not
	     supply the pass-phrase.  First you need to supply the current  one-
	     time  password  and  then the new one corresponding to the supplied
	     sequence-number and seed.

     -u      To choose a different user to set	one-time  passwords  for.   This
	     only works when running otp as root.
