NAME

       munge - MUNGE credential encoder

SYNOPSIS

       munge [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       The  munge  program  creates an MUNGE credential containing the UID and GID of the calling
       process.  Additional payload data can be encapsulated in as well.  The returned credential
       can  be  passed  to another process which can validate its contents (e.g., via the unmunge
       program).  This allows an unrelated  and  potentially  remote  process  to  ascertain  the
       identity of the calling process.

       By default, payload input is read from stdin and the credential is written to stdout.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Display a summary of the command-line options.

       -L, --license
              Display license information.

       -V, --version
              Display version information.

       -n, --no-input
              Discard all input for the payload.

       -s, --string string
              Input payload from the specified string.

       -i, --input file
              Input payload from the specified file.

       -o, --output file
              Output the credential to the specified file.

       -c, --cipher string
              Specify the cipher type, either by name or number.

       -C, --list-ciphers
              Display a list of supported cipher types.

       -m, --mac string
              Specify the MAC type, either by name or number.

       -M, --list-macs
              Display a list of supported MAC types.

       -z, --zip string
              Specify the compression type, either by name or number.

       -Z, --list-zips
              Display a list of supported compression types.

       -u, --restrict-uid uid
              Specify  the  user  name  or  UID  allowed  to decode the credential.  This will be
              matched against the effective user ID of  the  process  requesting  the  credential
              decode.

       -U, --uid uid
              Specify  the user name or UID under which to request the credential.  This requires
              root privileges or the CAP_SETUID capability.

       -g, --restrict-gid gid
              Specify the group name or GID allowed to  decode  the  credential.   This  will  be
              matched  against  the  effective  group ID of the process requesting the credential
              decode, as well as each supplementary group of which the effective user ID of  that
              process is a member.

       -G, --gid gid
              Specify the group name or GID under which to request the credential.  This requires
              root privileges or the CAP_SETGID capability.

       -t, --ttl integer
              Specify the time-to-live (in seconds).  This controls how long  the  credential  is
              valid  once it has been encoded.  A value of 0 selects the default TTL.  A value of
              -1 selects the maximum allowed TTL.

       -S, --socket path
              Specify the local domain socket for connecting with munged.

EXIT STATUS

       The munge program returns a zero exit code when the credential is successfully created and
       returned.   On  error,  it  prints  an error message to stderr and returns a non-zero exit
       code.
