NAME

       ekey-setkey - Entropy Key Long Term Key programmer

SYNOPSIS

       ekey-setkey [-s SerialNumber] [-m MasterKey] path

DESCRIPTION

       ekey-setkey  is a low level tool which sets the long-term key of an Entropy Key using its Master Key. The
       keyring is updated with the new session key. Any running ekeyd will not be updated with the new  key  and
       may interfere with the re-keying process.  Users may use the ekey-rekey tool instead as this performs the
       relevant ekeydctl operations to ensure any running ekeyd is updated apropriately.

       This is a tool for advanced users only.  Most users should use ekey-rekey instead.

OPTIONS

       -s     Specifies the serial number of the key to re-key.

       -m     Specifies the Master Key of the device

       path   Specifies which device node to use to access the Entropy Key.

       ekey-rekey(8), ekeyd(8)
