glite-eds-decrypt — Decrypt a local file using a known decryption key.

Synopsis

glite-eds-decrypt [ -q ] [ -v ] ID INPUT_FILE OUTPUT_FILE

DESCRIPTION

glite-eds-decrpyt is a command-line tool for decrypting a local input file using an existing decryption key and write the output to a local output file. glite-eds-decrypt will look up the key needed for decryption in the Hydra KeyStore, using the key ID (logical file name or GUID).

The client needs to have 'get meta data' (see glite-eds-chmod) permission on the ID to perform this operation.

-v

ID

The ID of the key, which can be a logical file name or GUID.

INPUT_FILE

The name of the encrypted input file on the local filesystem.

OUTPUT_FILE

The name of the file on the local filesystem to write the decrypted output to.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
