Name
myproxy-admin-change-pass — Change credential passphrase
Synopsis
myproxy-admin-change-pass
Tool description
The myproxy-admin-change-pass command changes the passphrase used to encrypt a credential in the MyProxy repository. The command first prompts for the current passphrase for the credential, then prompts twice for the new passphrase. If an empty passphrase is given, the credential will not be encrypted. It accesses the repository directly and must be run on the machine where the myproxy-server is installed from the account that owns the repository.
