       grid-change-pass-phrase - Change the passphrase of a private key

SYNOPSIS

       grid-change-pass-phrase [-help] [-usage] [-version] [-versions]

       grid-change-pass-phrase [-file PRIVATE-KEY]

DESCRIPTION

       The grid-change-pass-phrase program changes the passphrase protecting a private key or PKCS12 bundle
       containing a private key and certificate. By default, grid-change-pass-phrase uses the X509_USER_KEY
       environment variable to locate the private key. If that is not set, then it looks for
       $HOME/.globus/userkey.pem and $HOME/.globus/usercred.p12 in succession. The path to a key can be
       specified by using the -file command-line option.

       The full set of command-line options to grid-change-pass-phrase are:

       -help, -usage
           Display the command-line options to grid-change-pass-phrase and exit.

       -version, -versions
           Display the version number of the grid-change-pass-phrase command. The second form includes more
           details.

       -file PRIVATE-KEY
           Change the passphrase of the private key named by PRIVATE-KEY instead of the default.
