That's very strange indeed. I had a look at www.keyserver.net and couldn't find my key there even though you can read in the FAQ... ------------- In order to have multiple key servers provide access to the same keys, the key servers must share updates among themselves. An incremental mechanism propagate updates between servers. You need to send updates to just one server, and the update will be spread to all the other key servers. Each key server keeps a list of other key servers with which it shares updates. Whenever a key is added or changed by a user or by an incremental from another key server, this change is propagated to all the key servers. For performance and reliability, key servers have been established all over the world. If this server becomes temporarily unavailable, you can use other key server to look up keys. ------------- ...and in spite of the fact that pgp.mit.edu is listed in the "Partial list of other key servers". I'll write a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] but I'm afraid it will be useless. cu lukas Have a look at my new signature! :) -- ** PGP-key available on keyserver pgp.mit.edu ** Please don't sign your public mail unless your PGP-key is available for everyone!
