Access
To access this service you need PGP identities using email addresses on domains managed by DuckCorp.
Requesting an identity to be published
The gpg-wks-client command used below might not be in your path, it can often be found inside /usr/lib/gnupg/.
If the --send option fails in the following command, you can remove it and pipe the result into /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -t directly.
Request the inclusion or update of your key:
gpg-wks-client --create --send <gpgkey-fpr> <email>
<gpgkey-fpr> is the fingerprint of your GPG key. <email> must match one of the key identities (uids) as well as one of the published domains.
When you receive the confirmation request email, save the attachment and send the confirmation:
gpg-wks-client --send --read < <file>
When you receive the publishing notification it is then published.
Verifying an identify is published
You can check the key is properly published for an identity with:
gpg --auto-key-locate clear,nodefault,wkd --locate-keys <email>
