Yubico PIV Tool
===============

Introduction
------------

The Yubico PIV tool is used for interacting with the Privilege and
Identification Card (PIV) applet on a https://www.yubico.com[YubiKey NEO].

With it you may generate keys on the device, importing keys and
certificates, and create certificate requests, and other operations.
A shared library and a command-line tool is included.

If you modify this program, or any covered work, by linking or
combining it with the OpenSSL project's OpenSSL library (or a
modified version of that library), containing parts covered by the
terms of the OpenSSL or SSLeay licenses, We grant you additional 
permission to convey the resulting work. Corresponding Source for a
non-source form of such a combination shall include the source code
for the parts of OpenSSL used as well as that of the covered work.

Building
--------

After downloading and unpacking the package tarball, you build it as
follows.

  ./configure
  make
  sudo make install

The backend to use is decided at compile time, see the summary at the
end of the ./configure output.  Use --with-backend=foo to chose
backend, replacing foo with the backend you want to use.  The backends
available are "pcsc", "macscard", and "winscard" using the PCSC
interface, with slightly different shared library linkage and
header file names: "pcsc" is used under GNU-like systems, "macscard"
under Mac OS X, and "winscard" is used under Windows.  In most
situations, running ./configure should automatically find the proper
backend to use.

Building from Git
-----------------

Recent versions of autoconf, automake, pkg-config and libtool must
be installed.  Help2man is used to generate the manpages.  Gengetopt
is needed for command line parameter handling.

Generate the build system using:

  autoreconf --install

Then you follow the normal build instructions, see above.
To turn on all warnings add --enable-gcc-warnings to ./configure

Portability
-----------

The main development platform is Debian GNU/Linux.  The project is
cross-compiled to Windows using MinGW (see windows.mk) using the PCSC
backend.  It may also be built for Mac OS X (see mac.mk), also using
the PCSC backend.

Example Usage
-------------

For help text on all commands --help can be given to the command, for more
output --verbose or --verbose=2 may be added.

Generate a new ECC-P256 key on device in slot 9a, will print the public
key on stdout:

  yubico-piv-tool -s 9a -A ECCP256 -a generate

Generate a certificate request with public key from stdin, will print
the resulting request on stdout:

  yubico-piv-tool -s 9a -S '/CN=foo/OU=test/O=example.com/' -P 123456 \
    -a verify -a request

Generate a self-signed certificate with public key from stdin, will print
the certificate, for later import, on stdout:

  yubico-piv-tool -s 9a -S '/CN=bar/OU=test/O=example.com/' -P 123456 \
    -a verify -a selfsign

Import a certificate from stdin:

  yubico-piv-tool -s 9a -a import-certificate

Set a random chuid, import a key and import a certificate from a PKCS12
file with password test, into slot 9c:

  yubico-piv-tool -s 9c -i test.pfx -K PKCS12 -p test -a set-chuid \
    -a import-key -a import-cert

Change the management key used for administrative authentication:

  yubico-piv-tool -n 0807605403020108070605040302010807060504030201 \
    -a set-mgm-key

Delete a certificate in slot 9a:

  yubico-piv-tool -a delete-certificate -s 9a

Show some information on certificates and other data:

  yubico-piv-tool -a status
