openpgp2ssh — translate OpenPGP keys to SSH keys

       and this man page were written by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.

       only  works  with  RSA keys.  DSA keys are the only other key type available in both OpenPGP and SSH, but
       they are currently unsupported by this utility.

       only accepts raw OpenPGP packets on standard input.  It does not accept ASCII-armored  input.   Currently
       only exports into formats used by the OpenSSH.  It should support other key output formats, such as those
       used by lsh(1) and putty(1).

       Secret key output is currently not passphrase-protected.

       currently cannot handle passphrase-protected secret keys on input.

       The keys produced by this process are stripped of all identifying information, including  certifications,
       self-signatures,  etc.   This  is  intentional,  since  ssh  attaches  no  inherent significance to these
       features.

       will produce output for any requested RSA key.  This means, among other  things,  that  it  will  happily
       export  revoked  keys,  unverifiable  keys,  expired keys, etc.  Make sure you do your own key validation
       before using this tool!

       takes  an  OpenPGP-formatted  primary  key  and  associated  subkeys on standard input, and spits out the
       requested equivalent SSH-style (or PEM-encoded) key on standard output.

       If the data on standard input contains no subkeys, you can invoke without  arguments.   If  the  data  on
       standard  input  contains  multiple  keys (e.g. a primary key and associated subkeys), you must specify a
       specific OpenPGP key identifier as the first argument to indicate which key to export.   The  key  ID  is
       normally the 40 hex digit OpenPGP fingerprint of the key or subkey desired, but will accept as few as the
       last 8 digits of the fingerprint as a key ID.

       If  the  input  contains an OpenPGP RSA public key, it will be converted to the OpenSSH-style single-line
       keystring, prefixed with the key type (`ssh-rsa').  This format is suitable (with minor alterations)  for
       insertion  into  known_hosts files and authorized_keys files.  If invoked as `openpgp2pem', a PEM-encoded
       public key will be emitted instead.

       If invoked as `openpgp2spki', a PEM-encoded subjectPublicKeyInfo (as defined in the X.509 standard)  will
       be emitted instead.

       If  the  input  contains  an  OpenPGP  RSA secret key, it will be converted to the equivalent PEM-encoded
       private key.

       is part of the monkeysphere(7) framework for providing a PKI for SSH.

gpg--export-secret-key$KEYID | openpgp2ssh$KEYID | ssh-add-c/dev/stdin

       This pushes the secret key into the active ssh-agent(1).  Tools such as ssh(1) which know how to talk  to
       the ssh-agent(1) can now rely on the key.
