Hi all,
I already run one SKS keyserver, and am thinking of running a second.
The caveat is that the public IP address of the second system
periodically changes. When it does, the DNS name pointing to that
system is updated automatically (typically within a few seconds).
How happily could SKS exist in such an environment?
I have two particular concerns:
1. The instructions at
<https://bitbucket.org/skskeyserver/sks-keyserver/wiki/Peering> state
that "You should explicitly set all public addresses used...". How can
I effectively do this if the public address changes on occasion? How
would things work if I instead listed the internal IPv4 address of the
server (it's located behind a NAT router) and the public IPv6 address
for the server in the sksconf file?
2. How often would peers query DNS for updates to one's IP address? I
don't mind brief loss-of-sync events when the IP address changes, but
it'd be ideal if peers could adapt to updated IP addresses quickly.
Cheers!
-Pete
