## Password store file

The following commands are used to create and manipulate CE password store files within the `securityconfig` tool. CE password store files managed though this interface are never password protected. For more information on the `securityconfig` tool, see Configuring Security with Securityconfig.

To create a new password store file, run the `pwdfile create` command:

    pwdfile create
    -file <password store file>

To manipulate secrets (passwords), which are associated with a name (alias), run the `pwdfile secret` command:

    pwdfile secret
    -file <password store file>
    {-set | -delete} -alias <alias>

If the user specifies the -set option, the user is prompted for a new password for the specified alias and required to verify the new password.

If the -delete option is specified, the alias is deleted from the store.
