hkp

Hi,

Not sure if that is the correct ml, if not sorry in advance.

I don't want to use hkp, but rather http e.g.
http://stinkfoot.org:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x517D0F0E
that works nicely, though I want to get the machine readable text, though
adding
"&options=mr"
does not work. Is there a way to get mr code?

Cheers,
matthias

hkp is just http over port 11371.    hkp://<server.name.tld> is nothing more
than http://<server.name.tld>:11371 by definition.

Hmm, this should probably go to the sks-devel list. There is code in place for
checking for the mr option and implementing it. If it's not working, it's a SKS
issue. (request.ml & dbserver.ml,)

It may be specific to the SKS version. keyserver.stinkfoot.org is running 1.0.10
which is known to have at least one other issue.

Does the mr work if you try a 1.1.0 version (pgp.mit.edu, pgp.surfnet.nl) or
1.1.1 (keyserver.gingerbear.net, keyserver.kim-minh.com)

options=mr only pertains to op=index and op=vindex.  It is not  
meaningful for op=get.

What would you expect to get differently for op=get&options=mr ?  The  
output of a get is already machine readable.
