lost key

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA256

Hello Pgp-Basics,

I lost the privat key of a key that is listed in the keyservers.

As I can not delete the key from keyservers, and without the privat key
I can not revoke the key. I don't have a revocation cert either.

How do we usually behave in such a situation in order people don't used
'that' key?

TIA.

Make a new key and upload it to the keyservers. When people send you
emails encrypted to the old key, ask them to re-send it encrypted for
the new key. Rebuild your entire web of trust.

Yes, this solution kind of sucks. Sorry. :(

Let it be a lesson for the future: always keep a revocation key, and/or
a designated revoker.

Yes, always keep a copy of the original private key and a revocation
key on a floppy or cd. If on a floppy, use the write protector so it
doesn't get overwritten.
