NAME
mosquitto_passwd - manage password files for mosquitto
SYNOPSIS
mosquitto_passwd [-c | -D] passwordfile username
mosquitto_passwd -b passwordfile username password
mosquitto_passwd -U passwordfile
DESCRIPTION
mosquitto_passwd is a tool for managing password files the the mosquitto MQTT broker.
Usernames must not contain ":". Passwords are stored in a similar format to crypt(3).
OPTIONS
-b
Run in batch mode. This allows the password to be provided at the command line which
can be convenient but should be used with care because the password will be visible on
the command line and in command history.
-c
Create a new password file. If the file already exists, it will be overwritten.
-D
Delete the specified user from the password file.
-U
This option can be used to upgrade/convert a password file with plain text passwords
into one using hashed passwords. It will modify the specified file. It does not detect
whether passwords are already hashed, so using it on a password file that already
contains hashed passwords will generate new hashes based on the old hashes and render
the password file unusable.
passwordfile
The password file to modify.
username
The username to add/update/delete.
password
The password to use when in batch mode.
EXAMPLES
Add a user to a new password file:
· mosquitto_passwd -c /etc/mosquitto/passwd ral
Delete a user from a password file
· mosquitto_passwd -D /etc/mosquitto/passwd ral
Use mosquitto_passwd online using onworks.net services
