.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
The \fBtwadmin\fR utility is used to perform certain administrative
functions related to \fITripwire\fR files and configuration options.
Specifically, \fBtwadmin\fR allows encoding, decoding,
signing, and verification of
\fITripwire\fR files, and provides a means to generate and change
local and site keys.
.\" *****************************************
.SS Creating a configuration file (\-\-create\-cfgfile)
This command mode designates an existing text file as the new
configuration file for \fITripwire\fR.
The plain text configuration
file must be specified on the command line.
Using the site key, the new configuration file
is encoded and saved.
.\" *****************************************
.SS Printing a configuration file (\-\-print\-cfgfile)
This command mode prints the specified encoded and signed
configuration file in clear-text form to standard output.  
.\" *****************************************
.SS Replacing a policy file (\-\-create\-polfile)
This command mode designates an existing text file as the new
policy file for \fITripwire\fR.
The plain text policy file must be specified on the 
command line.
Using the site key, the new policy file is encoded and saved.  
.\" *****************************************
.SS Printing a policy file (\-\-print\-polfile)
This command mode prints the
specified encoded and signed policy file
in clear-text form to standard output.  
.\" *****************************************
.SS Removing encryption from a file (\-\-remove\-encryption)
This command mode allows the user to remove signing from signed
configuration, policy, database, or report files.  Multiple
files may be specified on the command line. The
user will need to enter the appropriate local or site keyfile,
or both if a combination of files is to be verified. Even with the
cryptographic signing removed, these files will be in a binary encoded
(non-human-readable) form.
.\" *****************************************
.SS Encrypting a file (\-\-encrypt)
This command mode allows the user to sign
configuration, policy, database files, or reports.
Multiple files may be specified on the command line.
The files will be signed using either the site or local key,
as appropriate for the type of file.  
To automate the process, the passphrase for the key
files can be included on the command line.
.\" *****************************************
.hy 0
.SS "Examining the signing status of a file (\-\-examine)"
.hy 1
This command allows the user to examine the listed files
and print a report of their signing status.  This report
displays the filename, file type, whether or not a file is
signed, and what key (if any) is used to sign it.  
.\" *****************************************
.SS Generating keys (\-\-generate\-keys)
This command mode generates site and/or local key files with
names specified by the user.
.\" *****************************************
.SS Changing passphrases (--change-passphrases)
This command reencrypts the private part of the
site and/or local key files using the key filenames and passphrases
specified by the user.
