OK, but Kleopatra does not seem to be configured by default to use any of these hundreds of servers, or even provide a way to identify the nearest and most useful one (i.e. One that is not too too restrictive in terms of the amount of data that can be retrieved at any one time or how fast the server is). At least, so far, I have not found a way to identify a good server to use.
If you visit Settings / Configure Kleopatra, then select Directory Services, it should have the default hpk server already entered, or if not, click the new button, and it will prompt the default. The default is actually a pool of servers, managed by a DNS scheme that gets you to a server even if one or more are down. There is seldom any need to select other than the default, but if you have your own favorite server you can key it in where the name appears. You can look up anyone's key either by their email address or their short key here: http://pgp.mit.edu/ although its just as easy to let Kleopatra do that. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
