Re: Desperately Seeking Kristian - SKS HKPS certificate renewals

2020-06-12 Thread Chris Kuethe
If only there was some way to establish trust (secrecy, authenticity,
integrity) relationships in a distributed manner, rather than relying on a
small pool of third parties who might suddenly become unavailable... 樂

Re: [Sks-devel] dump-only server (gossip but not public pool availability)

2018-02-04 Thread Chris Kuethe
you can spin up a second instance on the same host, perhaps bound to
127.0.0.1:21370 and 127.0.0.1:21371. Have your public instance also peer
with the localhost-only instance, and the locallhost-only instance peer
only with your public instance. Then you can start and stop the
localhost-only instance to dump it.

 Ahh. Thanks!
 Terrible that db-4.6 isn't yet umasked on Gentoo. :-(

you could build db 4.6 and install it into /home/sks. then you have
the required library, but you don't pollute the base system

Yes, though I don't mind leaving a not-too-outdated dump up at
ftp://pgp.srv.ualberta.ca/

 I like that idea.  I don't mind setting one up, but I've got to get
 through the end of summer crunch first.

It occurs to me that this may not work as well as one might like.
Everybody's keydump is going to be slightly different based on
what order keys were loaded, last update time, where a given update
was injected into the net ... to me that suggest that we'll have
40 servops all downloading a torrent they don't really need.

So long as the keydump is within a few thousand keys of the full
keyring, I think that's probably sufficient to bootstrap a server.
Also, how often do keydumps actually get used?

At least for users at other academic institutions, it makes sense
to have a dump available via FTP - this may suffer less a the hands
of the traffic shapers that are getting so common these days.

If others would see value in this, I'm willing to schedule a weekly
or monthly dump and leave it open for all interested parties...

Not sure what's going on there...

Last reconciliation run was less than 10 minutes ago, and my keyserver
thinks it has all the keys that you have.

-rw-r--r--  1 sks  sks  0 Aug 21 09:08 diff-62.94.26.10_11371.txt

What if you remove the diff file? Does sks show the same keys after the
next reconciliation attempt?


We've had this happen several times before.  Check the archives and
you should learn that you need to force a sks cleandb on your end,
Chris.


Okie dokie. I just ran cleandb, though I ran it immediately after loading
my keys but before bringing the keyserver up.
