Using the Configuration File Learning about the configuration file PAGER E-Business Server's --secure-viewer option lets you view decrypted plaintext output on your screen, one screen at a time, without writing the output to a file. If you want to be able to page backwards, one screen at a time, set PAGER=less, and use the --secure-viewer option. Default Value PAGER = "" E-Business Server includes a built-in page display utility. If you prefer to use a different page display utility, use the PAGER parameter to identify the utility. The PAGER parameter specifies the shell command E-Business Server uses to display a file. For further details, see Viewing decrypted plaintext output on your screen on page 65. PASSPHRASE-FD If PASSPHRASE-FD is specified, then E-Business Server reads the passphrase from the specified file descriptor. Use this parameter to transmit your passphrase from one program to another. Set the PASSPHRASE-FD parameter equal to a file descriptor number. If PASSPHRASE-FD is not specified in the configuration file (and the PGPPASSFD environment variable is also not set), then the passphrase is read from standard input (STDIN). The PASSPHRASE-FD value specified in the configuration file supersedes a value set in the PGPPASSFD environment variable. For more information on your passphrase options, see Alternative ways to work with passphrases on page 72. If you need to supply both your regular E-Business Server passphrase as well as a conventional passphrase in a single operation, then you may use the CONVENTIONAL-PASSPHRASE-FD parameter. For more information, see CONVENTIONAL-PASSPHRASE-FD on page 93. PASS-THROUGH When PASS-THROUGH is set to on, E-Business Server does not generate errors when a decryption operation encounters non-E-Business Server data. Default Value PASS-THROUGH = off PIN-FD If PIN-FD is specified, then E-Business Server will try to read the smart card PIN number (passphrase) from the specified file descriptor. Use this parameter to transmit a PIN from one program to another. Set the PIN-FD parameter equal to a file descriptor number. This option is only necessary if you must supply both your regular E-Business Server passphrase and a smart card PIN in a single operation. Otherwise, you can use the PASSPHRASE-FD option to supply your passphrase, whether it's your key passphrase, a conventional passphrase, or a smart card PIN number. For more information on this option, see PASSPHRASE-FD on page 101. For more information on the various ways you can supply your passphrase to E-Business Server, see Alternative ways to work with passphrases on page 72. PGP-MIME Use to specify compatibility with PGP/MIME. The PGP-MIME parameter creates messages in EBS/MIME format. PGP/MIME format produces both a message "header" and a message "body." The PGP-MIME parameter causes the output to include both of these parts, separated by a blank line. This parameter should be used in conjunction with the ARMOR parameter. Default Value PGP-MIME = off 101 E-Business Server™ 8.6 Product Guide
