NAME

       pksdctl - OpenPGP Public Key Server Control program


SYNOPSIS

       pksdctl socket string


DESCRIPTION

       pksdctl sends strings to a running pksd via a UNIX domain socket.  The
       strings (which must be a single argument in the shell) are interpreted
       by the running pksd process as commands.  Three string forms are
       supported:

       backup         The backup command from previous versions is no longer
                      supported.  The procedures referred to in pks-intro(8)
                      should be followed to make a backup.

       disable userid All keys matching the userid will have the disabled flag
                      set.

       mail msg       The file msg will be parsed as a mail server request.
                      If the file is a valid request, the request succeeds,
                      and the response can be enqueued, then the file is
                      removed.

       shutdown       The key server shuts down cleanly and exits.
