NAME

sqop-change-key-password - Updates a key's password

SYNOPSIS

sqop change-key-password [ --no-armor ] [ --new-key-password ] [ --old-key-password ] [ --debug ] [ -h | --help ]

DESCRIPTION

Updates a key's password.

The output will be the same set of OpenPGP Transferable Secret Keys as the input, but with all secret key material locked according to the password indicated by the ‘--new-key-password‘ option (or, with no password at all, if ‘--new-key-password‘ is absent). Note that ‘--old-key-password‘ can be supplied multiple times, and each supplied password will be tried as a means to unlock any locked key material encountered. It will normalize a Transferable Secret Key to use a single password even if it originally had distinct passwords locking each of the subkeys.

If any secret key packet is locked but cannot be unlocked with any of the supplied ‘--old-key-password‘ arguments, this subcommand should fail with ‘KEY_IS_PROTECTED‘.

OPTIONS

--no-armor

Don't ASCII-armor output

--new-key-password = NEW_KEY_PASSWORD

The new password to lock the key with, or just unlock the key if the option is absent

--old-key-password = OLD_KEY_PASSWORD

Unlock the keys with these passwords

--debug

Emit verbose output for debugging

-h , --help

Print help (see a summary with '-h')
