=head1 DESCRIPTION
The B command removes each specified encryption key from
the F file on the machine named by the B<-server>
argument. Use the B<-kvno> argument to identify each key by its key
version number; use the B command to display the key version
numbers.
=head1 CAUTIONS
Before removing a obsolete key, verify that the cell's maximum ticket
lifetime has passed since the current key was defined using the B and B commands. This ensures that no clients
still possess tickets encrypted with the obsolete key.
This command can only remove keys from the F file;
the F cannot be modified by this command.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 4
=item B<-server> >
Indicates the server machine on which to change the
F file. Identify the machine by IP address or its
host name (either fully-qualified or abbreviated unambiguously). For
details, see L.
In cells that use the Update Server to distribute the contents of the
F directory, it is conventional to specify only the system
control machine as a value for the B<-server> argument. Otherwise, repeat
the command for each file server machine. For further discussion, see
L.
=item B<-kvno> >+
Specifies the key version number of each key to remove.
=item B<-cell> >
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument
with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see L.
=item B<-noauth>
Assigns the unprivileged identity C to the issuer. Do not
combine this flag with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see
L.
=item B<-localauth>
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
F or F file.
The B command interpreter presents the
ticket to the BOS Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this
flag with the B<-cell> or B<-noauth> options. For more details, see
L.
=item B<-help>
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are
ignored.
=back
=head1 EXAMPLES
The following command removes the keys with key version numbers 5 and 6
from the F file on the system control machine C.
% bos removekey -server fs1.example.com -kvno 5 6
=head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must be listed in the F file on the
machine named by the B<-server> argument, or must be logged onto a server
machine as the local superuser C if the B<-localauth> flag is
included.
