MUPDATETEST(1)
NAME
  mupdatetest - interactive MUPDATE test program

SYNOPSIS
  mupdatetest [ -p port ] [ -m mechanism ]
	      [ -u user ] [ -a user ] [ -k num ] [ -l num ]
	      [ -r realm ] [ -f file ] [ -n num ] [ -c ]
	      [ -o option=value ] [ -v ] hostname

DESCRIPTION
  mupdatetest is a utility that allows you to authenticate to a MUPDATE
  server and interactively issue commands to it. Once authenticated you may
  issue any MUPDATE command by simply typing it in. It is capable of multiple
  SASL authentication mechanisms and handles encryption layers transparently.
  This utility is often used for testing the operation of a mupdate server.
  Note that you must be an admin in order to authenticate to an mupdate
  server.

OPTIONS
  -p port
       Port to connect to. If left off this defaults to mupdate as defined in
       /etc/services.

  -m mechanism
       Force mupdatetest to use mechanism for authentication. If not
       specified the strongest authentication mechanism supported by the
       server is chosen.

  -u user
       Username to use for authentication; defaults to the current user.

  -a user
       Authname to use for authentication; defaults to the current user.

  -k num
       Minimum protection layer required.

  -l num
       Maximum protection layer to use (0=none; 1=integrity; etc).  For
       example if you are using the KERBEROS_V4 authentication mechanism
       specifying 0 will force mupdatetest to not use any layer and
       specifying 1 will force it to use the integrity layer.  By default the
       maximum supported protection layer will be used.

  -r realm
       Specify the realm to use. Certain authentication mechanisms (e.g.
       DIGEST-MD5) may require one to specify the realm.

  -f file
       Pipe file into connection after authentication.

  -n num
       Number of authentication attempts; default = 1.	The client will
       attempt to fast reauth (e.g. DIGEST-MD5), if possible.

  -c   Enable challenge prompt callbacks.  This will cause the OTP mechanism
       to ask for the the one-time password instead of the secret pass-phrase
       (library generates the correct response).

  -o option=value
       Set the SASL option to value.

  -v   Verbose. Print out more information than usual.
