NAME

       srp-gen - generate a password verifier for the SRP protocol.

SYNOPSIS

       srp-gen [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly  the srp-gen command.  This manual page was written for the Debian
       GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does  not  have  a  manual  page.   Instead,  it  has
       documentation in the GNU Info format; see below.

       srp-gen  is  a  program  that  generates a password verifier for the Secure Remote Password protocol. The
       password verifier should be stored as ~/.lsh/srp-verifier on the target (remote)  machine  on  which  you
       want to authenticate using SRP.

       For  more  information  about  SRP, see the "srp" node of the "Getting started" section of the Lsh manual
       available via the info system.
