You can edit the key, and change the expiration date, and then upload the ne public key to the keyservers. The only real effect of an expired key is that most implementations will not allow someone to encrypt *to* that key. That's all. I set my keys to expire five years after creation. I personally beleive that having long-lived gpg keys is a bad thing -john -- KPLUG-List mailing list [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
