+respond:
+
+respond takes the challenge from the server and creates a valid response
+to pass back to the server.
+
+Syntax:
+$ ./respond <private key> <challenge> [passphrase]
+
+Notes:
+
+The private key file is protected by a passphrase, entered when the key is
+created.  The passphrase is prompted for whenever respond is called.
+
+Do not use mkkeypair to create a RSA key. The shell script will create it
+without a passphrase.
+
+If the passphrase is passed on the command line (insecure mode), the
+program will not prompt for a passphrase.  This is primarily for running
+rsa_respond from a script.
+
+Compiling:
+
+Untar the distribution
+Read this document
+Run 'configure' (not so foolproof, tweak the Makefile if necessary)
+...and 'make'
+
+libcrypto from OpenSSL must be available in order to use this program.
+
+System support:
+respond compiles properly, and have been tested on FreeBSD 4.x, Linux glibc,
+Solaris 8, and Cygwin 1.2 or higher.
