If the +found key is acceptable (see KEY ACCEPTABILITY), then the key will be +updated and re-added to the authorized_keys file.

If the data on standard input contains +multiple keys (e.g. a primary key and associated subkeys), you must +specify a specific OpenPGP keyid (e.g. CCD2ED94D21739E9) or +fingerprint as the first argument to indicate which key to export. +The keyid must be exactly 16 hex characters. +.Pp +If the input contains an OpenPGP RSA or DSA public key, it will be +converted to the OpenSSH-style single-line keystring, prefixed with +the key type. This format is suitable (with minor alterations) for +insertion into known_hosts files and authorized_keys files. +.Pp +If the input contains an OpenPGP RSA or DSA secret key, it will be +converted to the equivalent PEM-encoded private key. +.Pp +.Nm +is part of the +.Xr monkeysphere 1 +framework for providing a PKI for SSH. +.Sh CAVEATS +The keys produced by this process are stripped of all identifying +information, including certifications, self-signatures, etc. This is +intentional, since ssh attaches no inherent significance to these +features. +.Pp +.Nm +only works with RSA or DSA keys, because those are the +only ones which work with ssh. +.Pp +Assuming a valid key type, though, +.Nm +will produce output for +any requested key.
