.TH Mono "sn"
.SH NAME
sn \- Digitally sign/verify/compare strongname on CLR assemblies.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
.B sn [-q | -quiet] [options] [parameters]
.SH DESCRIPTION
Digitally sign, verify or compare, CLR assemblies using strongnames.
.SH CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
Configuration options are stored in the machine.config configuration file
under /configuration/strongNames.
.TP
.I "-c provider"
Change the default CSP (Crypto Service Provider). Currently not supported
in Mono.
.TP
.I "-m [y|n]"
Use a machine [y] key container or a user [n] key container. Currently not
supported in Mono.
.TP
.I "-Vl"
List the verification options. The list is kept under /configuration/
strongNames/verificationSettings in machine.config.
.TP
.I "-Vr assembly [userlist]"
Exempt the specified assembly from verification for the specified user list.
Currently not supported by sn, you must edit machine.config manually if you
require this.
.TP
.I "-Vu assembly"
Remove the exemption entry for the specified assembly. Currently not
supported by sn, you must edit machine.config manually if you require this.
.TP
.I "-Vx"
Remove all exemptions entries. Currently not supported by sn, you must edit
machine.config manually if you require this.
.SH CSP RELATED OPTIONS
.TP
.I "-d container"
Delete the keypair present in the specified key container.
.TP
.I "-i keypair.snk container"
Import the specified strongname file into the specified container.
.TP
.I "-pc container publickey"
Export the public key from the specified CSP container to the specified file.
.SH CONVERTION OPTIONS
.TP
.I "-e assembly output.pub"
Export the assembly public key to the specified output file.
.TP
.I "-p keypair.snk output.pub"
Export the public key from the specified strongname key file (SNK) to the
specified output file.
.TP
.I "-o input output.txt"
Convert the input file to a CSV file (using decimal).
.TP
.I "-oh input output.txt"
Convert the input file to a CSV file (using hexadecimal).
.SH STRONGNAME SIGNING OPTIONS
.TP
.I "-D assembly1 assembly2"
Compare if assembly1 and assembly are the same exception for their signature.
This is done by comparing the hash of the metadata of both assembly.
.TP
.I "-k keypair.snk"
Create a new strongname keypair (a 1024 bits RSA keypair) in the specified
file.
.TP
.I "-R assembly keypair.snk"
Resign the specified assembly using the specified strongname keypair file
(SNK). You can only sign an assembly with the private key (SNK) that match
the public key inside the assembly (unless it's public key token has been
remapped in machine.config).
.TP
.I "-Rc assembly container"
Resign the specified assembly using the specified strongname container.
.TP
.I "-t file"
Show the public key from the specified file.
.TP
.I "-tp file"
Show the public key and the public key token from the specified file.
.TP
.I "-T assembly"
Show the public key from the specified assembly.
.TP
.I "-Tp assembly"
Show the public key and the public key token from the specified assembly.
.TP
.I "-v assembly"
Verify the specified assembly signature.
.TP
.I "-vf assembly"
Verify the specified assembly signature (even if disabled).
.SH HELP OPTIONS
.TP
.I "-h", "-?"
Display basic help about this tool.
.TP
.I "-h config", "-? config"
Display configuration related help about this tool.
.TP
.I "-h csp", "-? csp"
Display Cryptographic Service Provider related help about this tool.
.TP
.I "-h convert", "-? convert"
Display convertion related help about this tool.
.TP
.I "-h sn", "-? sn"
Display strongname related help about this tool.
.SH CONFIGURATION FILE
.TP
Strongnames configuration is kept in "machine.config" file. Currently two
features can be configured.
.TP
.I "/configuration/strongNames/pubTokenMapping"
This mechanism let Mono remap a public key token, like the ECMA token, to
another public key for verification. This is useful in two scenarios. First
assemblies signed with the "ECMA key" needs to be verified by the "runtime"
key (as the ECMA key isn't a public key). Second, many assemblies are signed
with private keys that Mono can't use (e.g. System.Security.dll assembly).
A new key cannot be used because it should change thr strongname (a new key
pair would have a new public key which would produce a new token). Public
key token remapping is the solution for both problems. Each token must be
configured in a "map" entry similar to this one: <map Token="b77a5c561934e089"
PublicKey="00..." />
.TP
.I "/configuration/strongNames/verificationSettings"
It is often useful during development to use delay signed assemblies.
Normally* the runtime wouldn't allow delay-signed assemblies to be loaded.
This feature allows some delay-signed assemblies (based on their public key
token, optionally assembly name and user name) to be used like they were
fully signed assemblies. [*] Note that Mono 1.0 "runtime" doesn't validate
strongname signatures so this option shouldn't be required in most scenarios.
