# stoken-gui(1)

GTK+ software token

## NAME

stoken-gui - GTK+ software token

## SYNOPSIS

**stoken-gui** \[*opts*\]

## DESCRIPTION

**stoken-gui** is a software token compatible with RSA SecurID 128-bit (AES) tokens.  The graphical user interface provides limited support for password entry and viewing the current token.  Initial token importation and other configuration items are handled through the command-line interface, **[stoken(1)](/stoken/1.md)**.

After using **stoken import** to populate *~/.stokenrc*, **stoken-gui** may be invoked to display the tokencode and counter.  The tokencode changes once a minute; **stoken-gui** may be left running forever and will copy the current tokencode to the clipboard on demand.

If a password and/or PIN is required, **stoken-gui** will pop up a dialog box requesting the appropriate information.

## OPTIONS

- **--small**

  Show a minimal window that only displays a tokencode and a progress bar. Clicking on the tokencode copies it to the clipboard.

- **--rcfile=***file*

  **Use an alternate** *.stokenrc* **file.  This is typically used to support** **multiple tokens on the same user account.**

- **--password=***password***, -p** *password*

  **Use a password supplied from the command line, instead of prompting the user.** **See notes in SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS on the [stoken(1)](/stoken/1.md) man page.**

- **--pin=***pin***, -n** *pin*

  **Use a PIN supplied from the command line, instead of prompting the user.** **See notes in SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS on the [stoken(1)](/stoken/1.md) man page.**

- **--force, -f**

  **Override token expiration date check.**

- **--file=***file*

  **Use a token from** *file* **instead of the** *.stokenrc* **file.  For** **testing purposes only.**

- **--token=***token\_string*

  **Use a token from the command line instead of the** *.stokenrc* **file.  See** **above notes on --file.**

- **--random**

  **Generate a random token on the fly.  Used for testing or demonstrations only.** **These tokens should not be used for real authentication.**
