TLS and OpenPGP keys used by
191
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>mandos-client</refentrytitle>
192
<manvolnum>8mandos</manvolnum></citerefentry>. The keys are
193
normally written to /etc/keys/mandos for later installation into
194
the initrd image, but this, and most other things, can be
195
changed with command line options.

391
options to use this fingerprint as a
