GIDS\-TOOL

OPTIONS

-X, --initialize

Initialize token.

--admin-key argument

Define the administrator key

--pin pin

This option can be used to specify the PIN value on the command line. If the value is set to env:VARIABLE, the value of the specified environment variable is used. By default, the code is prompted on the command line if needed.

Note that on most operation systems, any user can display the command line of any process on the system using utilities such as ps(1). Therefore, you should prefer passing the codes via an environment variable on an unsecured system.

--serial-number argument

Define serial number.

-U, --unblock

Unblock the user PIN after an administrator authentication.

-C, --change-admin-key

Change the administrator key.

--new-admin-key argument

Define the new administrator key.

--reader argument, -r argument

Number of the reader to use. By default, the first reader with a present card is used. If argument is an ATR, the reader with a matching card will be chosen.

-w, --wait

Wait for a card to be inserted.

-v, --verbose

Verbose operation. Use several times to enable debug output.
