Would it be feasible to use gpg in batch mode to generate numerous keys, selecting for a particular key ID, or perhaps a longer part of the fingerprint? I'm aware of shortcuts for creating keys with arbitrary key IDs, but they produce keys with atypical key lengths etc. Based on limited experience, I suspect that entropy would be the limiting resource. Is that correct?
I imagine that websites could provide random alphanumeric strings to new users, and require them to generate functional GnuPG keys (with normal key length etc) with fingerprints that begin with the specified strings. Having accomplished that, new users could edit their key, and specify an account name and email address. Is there an existing app or script that does this? Neither marc.info or Google has led me to one. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
