SYNOPSIS
/etc/publickey
DESCRIPTION
/etc/publickey is a local public key database that is used for secure
RPC. The /etc/publickey file can be used in conjunction with or
instead of other publickey databases, including the NIS publickey map.
Each entry in the database consists of a network user name (which may
refer to either a user or a hostname), followed by the user's public
key (in hex notation), a colon, and then the user's secret key
encrypted with a password (also in hex notation).
The /etc/publickey file contains a default entry for nobody.
