NAME

       sxacl-usernewkey - change (password based) user authentication key

SYNOPSIS

       sxacl usernewkey [OPTIONS] <username> sx://[profile@]cluster

DESCRIPTION

       sxacl  usernewkey  generates  a  new  user authentication key based on a password or a random data, which
       automatically replaces the old one. A normal user can change its own key and a cluster administrator  can
       change a key of any user.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Print help and exit

       --full-help
              Print help, including hidden options, and exit

       -V, --version
              Print version and exit

       -p, --pass-file=PATH
              By  default sxacl works in interactive mode and asks for the user password on standard input. With
              this option it will read the password from the provided file.

       -a, --auth-file=FILE
              Store authentication key in a given file (instead of printing it).

       -g, --generate-key
              Automatically generate a new key based on a random data instead of a password.

       -b, --batch-mode
              Disable additional information and only print the automatically generated authentication key.

       --force-key=KEY
              By default, the new authentication key is automatically generated. With this option one can  force
              the  use  of  an  old  key. Only a key that was previously generated for the same username will be
              accepted.

       -c, --config-dir=PATH
              Path to the SX configuration directory (default: ~/.sx)

       -D, --debug
              Enable debug messages.

EXAMPLES

       To change the key of user 'joe' run:
           sxacl usernewkey joe sx://admin@cluster
