PGPKEY follow-up

[gerald () merit edu (Gerald Andrew Winters)]

Merit transitioned to PGPKEY authentication last Sunday, 7/30 as 
previously announced.  As part of the conversion process we created 
new 'key-cert' objects from our version 5 rings on behalf of those 
PGP users who had already registered their public key with us.  For 
version 2 keys and other non-version 5 keys the key is displayed as a 
version 5 key equivalent in the 'key-cert' objects.  

> From a functional standpoint this does not impact the database submission
verification process.  For example, submissions signed with a valid 
version 2 key will correctly verify against our version 5 ring.

For users who wish to display their non-version 5 key in their 'key-cert'
object instead of a version 5 equivalent, simply re-submit your
'key-cert' object with the key you wish to use to auto-dbm () radb net.

This is an artifact of the conversion process and will not affect future
transactions.  'key-cert' objects will appear in the database as 
submitted by the user.

Follow-up questions or comments should be directed to db-admin () radb net.
