MANAGING GNUPG KEYS
Managing keys in GnuPG
can be a little more difficult
than with PGP, simply because
the variety of tools don’t always
integrate seamlessly. We’ll focus on the
command-line management of keys, with
some pointers to the WinPT graphic
interface.
Keyservers
GnuPG allows you to choose a default keyserver, which you can
override on the command line. Like so many other GnuPG fea-
tures, you set your default keyserver in the gpg.conf file:
keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net
