read-sshkey infile outfile
The program writes a complete PCP keyfile to "outfile"
after having extracted the key material from "infile".
The input can be any SSH key.
The value 1 will be used for the hash modulus and generator
and both values should be substituted with a valid hashkey
subsequently.
In case of a secret key the key must be stored unprotected, i.e. with an empty passphrase in order to extract the secret decryption value, because the program does not use any symmetric cipher. Use protect-secretkey to encrypt the secret key with PCP's protection mechanism and wipe all files containing unencrypted data from the filesystem reliably.
Additionally the two primes p and q are printed to stdout when a secret key is processed.
