    <title>DESCRIPTION</title>

    <para>

      <command>&COMMANDNAME;</command> is a plugin runner that waits

      for any of its plugins to return sucessfull with a password, and

      passes it to cryptsetup as stdout message. This command is not

      meant to be invoked directly, but is instead meant to be run by

      cryptsetup by being specified in /etc/crypttab as a keyscript

      and subsequlently started in the initrd environment. See

      <citerefentry><refentrytitle>crypttab</refentrytitle>

      <manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> for more information on

      keyscripts.

    </para>

    <para>

      plugins is looked for in the plugins directory which by default will be

      /conf/conf.d/mandos/plugins.d if not changed by option --plugin-dir.
