kxd - Key exchange daemon
kxd [--key=<file>] [--cert=<file>] [--data_dir=<directory>] [--email_from=<email-address>] [--ip_addr=<ip-address>] [--logfile=<file>] [--port=<port>] [--smtp_addr=<host:port>]
kxd is a key exchange daemon, which serves blobs of data (keys) over https.
It can be used to get keys remotely instead of using local storage. The main use case is to get keys to open dm-crypt devices automatically, without having to store them on the local machine.
The server configuration is stored in a root directory (/etc/kxd/data/ by default), and within there, with per-key directories (e.g. /etc/kxd/data/host1/key1/), each containing the following files:
