An example would be key dom=x.com proto=p9sk1 user=boyd !hex=26E522ADE2BBB2A229 key proto=rsa service=ssh size=1024 ek=3B !dk=... this file in secstore is like your keyring. i believe you can create it with: ipso factotum just add your key like the example in the manual above and it will get loaded into factotum when you authenticate with secstore. hope this makes it clear.
