Generate a private key:
|
||||
|
||||
$ openssl genrsa -out mykey.sec 2048
|
||||
|
||||
The private key should be kept secret (only readable to the Nix daemon
|
||||
user).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Generate the corresponding public key:
|
||||
|
||||
$ openssl rsa -in mykey.sec -pubout > mykey.pub
|
||||
|
||||
The public key should be copied to all machines to which you want to
|
||||
export store paths.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Signing:
|
||||
|
||||
$ nix-hash --type sha256 --flat svn.nar | openssl rsautl -sign -inkey mykey.sec > svn.nar.sign
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Verifying a signature:
|
||||
|
||||
$ test "$(nix-hash --type sha256 --flat svn.nar)" = "$(openssl rsautl -verify -inkey mykey.pub -pubin -in svn.nar.sign)"
