Change the 'man' directory to 'apps'. Yes I wish cvs

could rename too :-(

+=head1 NAME
+
+spkac - SPKAC printing and generating utility
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+B<openssl> B<spkac>
+[B<-in filename>]
+[B<-out filename>]
+[B<-key keyfile>]
+[B<-challenge string>]
+[B<-spkac spkacname>]
+[B<-spksect section>]
+[B<-noout>]
+[B<-verify>]
+
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The B<spkac> command processes Netscape signed public key and challenge
+(SPKAC) files. It can print out their contents, verify the signature and
+produce its own SPKACs from a supplied private key.
+
+=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<-in filename>
+
+This specifies the input filename to read from or standard input if this
+option is not specified. Ignored if the B<-key> option is used.
+
+=item B<-out filename>
+
+specifies the output filename to write to or standard output by
+default.
+
+=item B<-key keyfile>
+
+create an SPKAC file using the private key in B<keyfile>. The
+B<-in>, B<-noout>, B<-spksect> and B<-verify> options are ignored if
+present.
+
+=item B<-challenge string>
+
+specifies the challenge string if an SPKAC is being created.
+
+=item B<-spkac spkacname>
+
+allows an alternative name form the variable containing the
+SPKAC. The default is "SPKAC". This option affects both
+generated and input SPKAC files.
+
+=item B<-spksect section>
+
+allows an alternative name form the section containing the
+SPKAC. The default is the default section.
+
+=item B<-noout>
+
+don't output the text version of the SPKAC (not used if an
+SPKAC is being created).
+
+=item B<-verify>
+
+verifies the digital signature on the supplied SPKAC.
+
+
+=back
+
+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+Print out the contents of an SPKAC:
+
+ openssl spkac -in spkac.cnf
+
+Verify the signature of an SPKAC:
+
+ openssl spkac -in spkac.cnf -noout -verify
+
+Create an SPKAC using the challenge string "hello":
+
+ openssl spkac -key key.pem -challenge hello -out spkac.cnf
+
+Example of an SPKAC, (long lines split up for clarity):
+

+=head1 NOTES
+
+A created SPKAC with suitable DN components appended can be fed into
+the B<ca> utility.
+
+SPKACs are typically generated by Netscape when a form is submitted
+containing the B<KEYGEN> tag as part of the certificate enrollment
+process.
+
+The challenge string permits a primitive form of proof of possession
+of private key. By checking the SPKAC signature and a random challenge
+string some guarantee is given that the user knows the private key
+corresponding to the public key being certified. This is important in
+some applications. Without this it is possible for a previous SPKAC
+to be used in a "replay attack".
