NAME
       ssh-pkcs11-helper — OpenSSH helper for PKCS#11 support

SYNOPSIS
       ssh-pkcs11-helper [-v]

DESCRIPTION
       ssh-pkcs11-helper is used by ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), and ssh-keygen(1) to access keys provided by a PKCS#11 token.

       ssh-pkcs11-helper is not intended to be invoked directly by the user.

       A single option is supported:

       -v      Verbose	mode.	Causes ssh-pkcs11-helper to print debugging messages about its progress.  This is helpful in
	       debugging problems.  Multiple -v options increase the verbosity.	 The maximum is 3.

	       Note that ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), and ssh-keygen(1) will automatically pass the -v	 flag  to  ssh-pkcs11-helper
	       when they have themselves been placed in debug mode.

SEE ALSO
       ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), ssh-keygen(1)

HISTORY
       ssh-pkcs11-helper first appeared in OpenBSD 4.7.
