# Setting up a custom did:plc
This guide will help you modify your did:plc so you can point it to a different PDS yourself without losing your identity! ✨
## Obtain secret keys
1. Generate [secret keys using boat](https://boat.kelinci.net/crypto-generate)

2. Store these keys in a safe location! (and don't share your private keys with anyone!)
## Add the new keys to your did:plc
1. Open the [PLC applicator](https://boat.kelinci.net/plc-applicator) in boat
2. Enter your handle and password
