15 # Unless you specify which option file to use (with the command line
16 # option "--options filename"), the file ~/.gnupg/dirmngr.conf is used
17 # by dirmngr. The file can contain any long options which are valid

25 # GPG can send and receive keys to and from a keyserver. These
26 # servers can be HKP, Email, or LDAP (if GnuPG is built with LDAP
29 # Example HKP keyservers:
30 # hkp://keys.gnupg.net
32 # Example HKP keyserver using a Tor OnionBalance service
33 # hkp://jirk5u4osbsr34t5.onion
35 # Example HKPS keyservers (see --hkp-cacert below):
36 # hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
38 # Example LDAP keyservers:
39 # ldap://pgp.surfnet.nl:11370
41 # Regular URL syntax applies, and you can set an alternate port
42 # through the usual method:
43 # hkp://keyserver.example.net:22742
45 # Most users just set the name and type of their preferred keyserver.
46 # Note that most servers (with the notable exception of
47 # ldap://keyserver.pgp.com) synchronize changes with each other. Note
48 # also that a single server name may actually point to multiple
49 # servers via DNS round-robin. hkp://keys.gnupg.net is an example of
50 # such a "server", which spreads the load over a number of physical
53 # If exactly two keyservers are configured and only one is a Tor hidden
54 # service, Dirmngr selects the keyserver to use depending on whether
55 # Tor is locally running or not (on a per session base).

58 keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net
60 # --hkp-cacert FILENAME
62 # For the "hkps" scheme (keyserver access over TLS), Dirmngr needs to
63 # know the root certificates for verification of the TLS certificates
64 # used for the connection. Enter the full name of a file with the
65 # root certificates here. If that file is in PEM format a ".pem"
66 # suffix is expected. This option may be given multiple times to add
67 # more root certificates. Tilde expansion is supported.
