keyboxd - Public key management for GnuPG

Bugs

       Please report bugs to <https://dev.gnupg.org>.

Commands

       Commands are not distinguished from options except for the fact that only one command is allowed.

       --version
              Print  the program version and licensing information.

       --help Print a usage message summarizing the most useful command-line options.

       --server
              Run in server mode and wait for commands on the stdin.  The default mode is to create a socket and
              listen for commands there.  This is only used for testing.

       --daemon
              Run  in  background  daemon  mode and listen for commands on a socket.  This is the way keyboxd is
              started on demand by the other GnuPG components.  To force starting keyboxd it is in general  best
              to use gpgconf--launchkeyboxd.

       --supervised
              Run  in  the  foreground,  sending  logs to stderr, and listening on file descriptor 3, which must
              already be bound to a listening socket.  This is  useful  when  running  under  systemd  or  other
              similar process supervision schemes.  This option is not supported on Windows.

Description

       keyboxd is a public key management service for GnuPG.

Files

       Keyboxd  uses  a  configuration file which controls the operation of keyboxd.  By default they may all be
       found in the current home directory (see: [option --homedir]).

       keyboxd.conf
              This is the standard configuration file read by keyboxd on startup.  It may contain any valid long
              option; the leading two dashes may not be entered and the option may  not  be  abbreviated.   This
              file  is  also  read  after  a  SIGHUP however not all options will actually have an effect.  This
              default name may be changed on the command line (see: [option --options]).  You should backup this
              file.

       pubring.db
              This file is a database in SQLite format, for public key material.  You should backup this file.

Name

       keyboxd - Public key management for GnuPG

Options

       Note  that  all  long  options  with  the  exception  of --options and --homedir may also be given in the
       configuration file after stripping off the two leading dashes.

       --optionsfile
              Reads configuration from file instead of  from  the  default  per-user  configuration  file.   The
              default configuration file is named ‘keyboxd.conf’ and expected in the home directory.

       --homedirdir
              Set the name of the home directory to dir.  This option is only effective when used on the command
              line.   The  default is the directory named ‘.gnupg’ directly below the home directory of the user
              unless the environment variable GNUPGHOME has been set in which case its value will be used.  Many
              kinds of data are stored within this directory.

       -v--verbose
              Outputs additional information while running.  You can increase the verbosity  by  giving  several
              verbose commands to keyboxd, such as -vv.

       --log-filefile
              Append  all  logging output to file.  This is very helpful in seeing what the agent actually does.
              Use ‘socket://’ to log to socket.

       --debug-levellevel
              Select the debug level for investigating problems.  level may be a numeric value or by a keyword:

              none   No debugging at all.  A value of less than 1 may be used instead of the keyword.

              basic  Some basic debug messages.  A value between 1 and 2 may be used instead of the keyword.

              advanced
                     More verbose debug messages.  A value between 3 and 5 may be used instead of the keyword.

              expert Even more detailed messages.  A value between 6 and 8 may be used instead of the keyword.

              guru   All of the debug messages you can get. A value greater than 8 may be used  instead  of  the
                     keyword.  The creation of hash tracing files is only enabled if the keyword is used.

       How  these  messages  are mapped to the actual debugging flags is not specified and may change with newer
       releases of this program. They are however carefully selected to best aid in debugging.

       --debugflags
              Set debugging flags.  This option is only useful for debugging and its behavior may change with  a
              new  release.   All  flags  are  or-ed  and  may  be given in C syntax (e.g. 0x0042) or as a comma
              separated list of flag names.  To get a list of all supported flags the single word "help" can  be
              used.

       --debug-all
              Same as --debug=0xffffffff
