+Monkeysphere. However, you should be comfortable using secure shell
+(ssh), and you should already have GnuPG installed and an OpenPGP key

As a regular user on a system where the monkeysphere package is
installed, you probably want to do a few things:

The remaining steps will complete the second half: allow servers to
verify you based on your OpenPGP key.

Setting up an OpenPGP authentication key
----------------------------------------
The first line (starting with sec) will include your key length followed
by the type of key (e.g. 1024D) followed by a slash and then your keyid.
