OK – so i’ve created a domain key for my domain and added all the required NDS settings.

But i can’t seem to find a straight answer about where to put the private key?!

I’m using plesk 11.

instructions frm the generator are –

Selector cmkey1 Private Key
—–BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY—– MIICXQIBAAKBgQDLuyX2W+17FnPK5aO2cxyVNF5SESXv9K6y1UVkcFDrMmhba7cX

Setting up your DNS You will need to create two text records to your
DNS server with the following information:

Name Value
_domainkey.jynk.net t=y;o=~; cmkey1._domainkey.jynk.net k=rsa; p=MIGfMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUAA4GNADCBiQKBgQDLuyX2W+17FnPK5aO2cxyVNF5S

    OK - so it turns out when you activate domain keys via plesk the PRIVATE KEY is created somewhere.


  2. One thing, a “private” key is supposed to be PRIVATE! Not shared on the internet. Before anything, you will now need to get yourself a new private key.
