DESCRIPTION

The kas list command either displays all entries from theAuthentication Database by name, or displays the full database entry for adefined set of entries, as determined by the flag provided:

*: To display every entry in the Authentication Database in full, include the-long flag.
*: To display only those entries in full that have the ADMIN flag set,include the -showadmin flag.
*: To list only the name of each Authentication Database entry, omit both the-long and -showadmin flags.

By default, full entries include a checksum for the encryption key, ratherthan the actual octal digits that constitute the key. To display the octaldigits, include the -showkey flag with the -long or -showadminflag.

OPTIONS

-long: Displays every Authentication Database entry in full. Provide this flag orthe -showadmin flag, or omit both to display just the name of everydatabase entry.
-showadmin: Displays in full only the Authentication Database entries that have theADMIN flag set. Provide this flag or the -long flag, or omit both todisplay just the name of every database entry.
