NAME
ssh-pkcs11-helper -- OpenSSH helper for PKCS#11 support
SYNOPSIS
ssh-pkcs11-helper [-v]
DESCRIPTION
ssh-pkcs11-helper is used by ssh-agent(1) to access keys provided by a
PKCS#11 token.
ssh-pkcs11-helper is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from
ssh-agent(1).
A single option is supported:
-v Verbose mode. Causes ssh-pkcs11-helper to print debugging mes-
sages about its progress. This is helpful in debugging problems.
Multiple -v options increase the verbosity. The maximum is 3.
Note that ssh-agent(1) will automatically pass the -v flag to
ssh-pkcs11-helper when it has itself been placed in debug mode.
