.SH SECURITY
The keys are created, using the umask of the user running the command.
To create the keys in a secure manner, you should check to ensure that
your umask is first set to disallow the private key from being world-
readable, such as with the following commands:
.I umask 0066
.I astgenkey yourkey
And then make the key accessible to Asterisk (assuming you run it as
user "asterisk").
chown asterisk /var/lib/asterisk/keys/yourname.*
