No. Preferred keyservers are a different sort of thing. Look at it this way: you have one list of options, with which you can use any keyserver. Preferred keyservers are the OpenPGP way for the keyholder to say "I like this keyserver - when using my key, please use this keyserver". It's like an automated way of changing --keyserver on a per-user ID basis. > > They're not "options for keyserver x" - they are "options that pertain > > to keyservers". > No, not yet but would make sense now with binddn and binddn. That's true. Here's what I did - keyserver-options must be global, but I added the ability to have per-keyserver options as well: Global options: keyserver-options option1 option2 Options tied to ldap://my.ldap.server: keyserver ldap://my.ldap.server option1 option2 option3 In your case you could do something like: keyserver ldap://server binddn="ou=pgp keys, etc..." bindpw=secret David _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
