Description

Generate a shared secret that may be used to generate time-based one-time password (TOTP) authentication codes for use in authenticating with the UNBOUNDID-TOTP SASL mechanism, or in conjunction with the validate TOTP password extended operation.

Examples

Generate a TOTP secret for the user with username 'john.doe' and a password entered at an interactive prompt.
generate-totp-shared-secret --hostname ds.example.com --port 389 \
     --authID u:john.doe --promptForUserPassword


Revoke all TOTP shared secrets for the user with username 'john.doe' whose password is contained in file 'password.txt'.
generate-totp-shared-secret --hostname ds.example.com --port 389 \
     --authID u:john.doe --userPasswordFile password.txt --revokeAll
