sxacl-usernewkey(1) change (password based) user authentication key

SYNOPSIS

sxacl usernewkey [,OPTIONS/] ,<username> sx:///[,profile@/],cluster/

DESCRIPTION

sxacl usernewkey generates a new user authentication key based on a password or a random data, which automatically replaces the old one. A normal user can change its own key and a cluster administrator can change a key of any user.
