PGP Public Keyservers
---------------------
There are PGP public key servers which allow one to exchange public
keys running through the Internet and UUCP mail systems.
NOTE!
This service is NOT supported in any way whatsoever by the schools or
organizations on which these servers run. It is here only to help
transfer keys between PGP users. It does NOT attempt to guarantee
that a key is a valid key; use the signators on a key for that kind of
security. This service can be discontinued at any time without prior
notification.
Each keyserver processes requests in the form of mail messages. The
commands for the server are entered on the Subject: line.
To: pgp-public-keys@pgp.iastate.edu
From: johndoe@some.site.edu
Subject: help
Sending your key to ONE server is enough. After it processes your
key, it will forward your add request to other servers automagically.
For example, to add your key to the keyserver, or to update your key if it is
already there, send a message similar to the following to any server:
To: pgp-public-keys@pgp.iastate.edu
From: johndoe@some.site.edu
Subject: add
-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
Version: 2.3
<blah blah blah>
-----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
COMPROMISED KEYS: Create a Key Revocation Certificate (read the PGP
docs on how to do that) and mail your key to the server once again,
with the ADD command.
Valid commands are:
Command Message body contains
---------------------- -------------------------------------------------
ADD Your PGP public key (key to add is body of msg)
INDEX List all PGP keys the server knows about (-kv)
VERBOSE INDEX List all PGP keys, verbose format (-kvv)
GET Get the whole public key ring
GET userid Get just that one key
MGET regexp Get all keys which match /regexp/
LAST days Get the keys updated in the last `days' days
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Examples for the MGET command:
MGET michael Gets all keys which have "michael" in them
MGET iastate All keys which contain "iastate"
MGET F605A5|3A738B Those two keyid's
