For example, I'd like to 

- change a recorded password/key
- change my keychain's password
- see how many key I have and for wich server

I'm not really interested in seeing the recorded password (I hope it's
not possible).

Thanks,

-leo

Hello!
Sounds like an interesting problem. Keychains are by nature very hard
to access without the proper rights - do you still have the password
to your Keychain?

What exactly do you mean by modify? Change a recorded password/key?
Read all your passwords? Ect.

Some good starting points for fellow reasearchers will be:
The Apple site on security: (background on what it is)
http://developer.apple.com/internet/macosx/securitycompare.html 

If your keychain name and password are the same as your log-in name
and password it'll automatically unlock your keychain. Pretty cool!

Visit this page on apple's site to learn how to change keychain
settings and passwords, aswell as create and delete keychains.

Does any of that cover your question? If not, please clarify what you
mean by modify (what you want to do).
Thanks!
