NAME

       openpgpkey - Create and verify RFC-TBD OPENPGPKEY DNS records

SYNTAX

       openpgpkey [-h] [--verify] [-create] [--version] [--insecure] [--resolv.conf
       /PATH/TO/RESOLV.CONF] [--output {rfc,generic,both}] user@domain

DESCRIPTION

       openpgpkey generates RFC-TBD OPENPGPKEY DNS records. To generate these records for older
       nameserver implementations that do not yet support the OPENPGPKEY record, specify --output
       generic to output the openpgpkey data in Generic Record (RFC-3597) format. Records are
       generated by taking all keys with the specified email address associated with it from the
       user's local GnuPG keychain.

       Verification of OPENPGPKEY records is done by comparing the keyid and fingerprint of the
       OPENPGPKEY obtained from DNS with the version in the local GnuPG keychain.

OPTIONS

       --create
           Create an OPENPGPKEY record

       --verify
           Verify an OPENPGPKEY record

       --resolvconf FILE
           Specify a custom resolv.conf file (default: /etc/resolv.conf)

       --output rfc | generic | both
           Output format of OPENPGPKEY record. "OPENPGPKEY" for rfc, "TYPE65280" for generic
           (default: generic)

       If neither create or verify is specified, create is used.

REQUIREMENTS

       openpgpkey requires the following python libraries: unbound, gnupg and argparse. It also
       requires gnupg which provides the gpg command.

BUGS

       none known
