[FAQ 3.5] How can I get all the keys for all the remailers?



There are some stats maintainers who will maintain an up-to-date
collection of all the current remailer keys.  Here are a few places to
download all the keys, starting with the newest:

Computer Cryptology's Database
<http://www.eskimo.com/~turing/cgi-bin/db.cgi>

Frog's Thesaurus Data
<http://www.privacyresources.org/frogadmin/Thesaurus/Thesaurus.html> OR
<http://www.chez.com/frogadmin/Thesaurus/Thesaurus.html> OR
<http://members.nbci.com/frogadmin/Thesaurus/Thesaurus.html>

Trex is out-of-date and Peter removed it.  As Weasel used to say,
"*Get [the keys] yourself from each remailer!* I mean it!"  Frog's
Web page agrees that collecting information and/or remailer keys
second hand is a bad idea. The most secure (but not the fastest) way
to do this is to send individual requests to all the remailers
according to your needs:

	Subject: remailer-key
	Subject: remailer-conf
	Subject: remailer-help
	Subject: remailer-stats

If you nevertheless permit your client to refresh keys from keyrings
on the Web, lists of the known key sources likely to be more current
than this FAQ are here:

Frog's MetaStats
<http://www.privacyresources.org/frogadmin/MetaStats/index.html> OR
<http://www.chez.com/frogadmin/MetaStats/index.html> OR
<http://members.nbci.com/frogadmin/MetaStats/index.html>

The following URLs might be current--check the date of this FAQ.  (The
links come from Computer Cryptology's List of Known Stats Sources,
<http://www.eskimo.com/~turing/remailer/stats/db//rlists.txt> and
<http://www.eskimo.com/~turing/remailer/stats/db//mlists.txt>.)

Use of these URLs depends on the remailer client.  For example, for
the Mixmaster keys, one might need pubring.mix and, perhaps, type2.lis
depending on the Mixmaster version.  Examples illustrating how to
place these in various clients are on these Web pages:

Client Configurations for DUMMIES
<http://www.privacyresources.org/frogadmin/Configs/index.html>
Stats - Configuration (JBN2 only)
<http://www.eskimo.com/~turing/remailer/stats/db/JBN.html>

Consider the comments in question 5.4 before using the following URLs:

lefarris
	<http://pages.globetrotter.net/arris/cles/rsa-dhdss.asc>
	<http://pages.globetrotter.net/arris/cles/type2.lis ;
	<http://pages.globetrotter.net/arris/cles/pubring.mix>
xganon	<http://anon.xg.nu/list/pubring.asc>
	<http://anon.xg.nu/list/type2.list> ;
	<http://anon.xg.nu/list/pubring.mix>

These may be out of date!
