Yes, I got the same info from somewhere else. According to the other person this is not the job of the keyserver. You could do something like call up the other chappie and get his key fingerprint etc etc.. So that part is clear. The second part is, say I am running the key server. Now there is a user X I want to certify. What I will need to do is most probably sign his public key with my private key?? I am currently trying out Mark Horowitz's pks and openkeyserver. Now, just wondering if anyone here knows how this certifying could be done on these keyservers?? Regards Sumit Dhar
