A very easy way to do this is to write your code to "import" the key from the LDAP server into a brand new empty keyring, and then delete it afterwards. > We need to be able to do encryption and decryption with GPG directly > accessing LDAP to get the keys.

The current LDAP code can specify the base. Use something like keyserver-options basedn=whatever-you-like David _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
