NAME
     skeyprune - prune zeroed and old entries from S/Key database

SYNOPSIS
     skeyprune [days]

DESCRIPTION
     skeyprune searches through the S/Key database, /etc/skey, and prunes out
     entries that have been zeroed out via skeyinit(1) as well as entries that
     have not been modified in days days.  If days is not specified, only
     invalid entries are pruned.

     If a malformed entry is encountered, or if the file mode/type is
     incorrect, an error is printed to the standard error.
