PGP authentication hasn't worked in at least 4 months.. it may have been
broken before that, but I didn't have any need to send an update.
I've mailed the Inter.. er, Network Solutions people about it and the
general impression I get is, "Thanks for your input. Now watch how fast I
can ignore you."
The guard-talk list they run (do they still run it since they hijacked
internic.net into networksolutions.com?) used to be a good place to post
PGP problems, but nowadays most everyone on the list has given up.
