NAME

       curvedns-keygen - Generates a key pair for curvedns

SYNOPSIS

       curvedns-keygen

       curvedns-keygen path-of-CurveDNS-installation authoritative-name-server-name

DESCRIPTION

       curvedns-keygen(1) is used to generate a keypair for use with curvedns(8). This command can be run in two
       different forms.

       In  the  first  form curvedns-keygen is run without parameters and prints the keys to standard output. An
       example output looks as follows:

       In the second form, curvedns-keygen writes the secret key to a file that is suitable  for  use  with  the
       daemontools  service manager in a subdirectory of path-of-CurveDNS-installation. It formats the output to
       already include the authoritative-name-server-name combined with the DNSCurve  public  key  suitable  for
       publication in the NS set of a DNS zone.

       Note:  On Debian users normally don't need to run this command as a key is automatically generated during
       package installation. See /usr/share/doc/curvedns/README.Debian for more information.
