Re: [Handle-info] setup of a local handle server..

[Robert Verkerk <robert.verkerk@surfsara.nl>]

Hi Robert,

You were correct! I already used to add the trick to add something in 
the handle with the fake index. Than I am able to add new info. But you 
have to do it correct at once. if you want to update the handle this is 
almost not doable. The fields in the update mode are almost not 
readable. (only a few pixels wide)

But I have created the handle "841/ADMIN" and I am able to use it to 
authenticate as the user "841/ADMIN" with the adminpriv key. Now I am 
able to add new handles once the handle server is started with the admin 
user.

Greetings and thanks,

Robert Verkerk

As a workaround, I believe you can click "Add", creating a handle value with index "-1", then actually enter the data you want (index 300, type HS_PUBKEY, data loaded from file), then click "Add" again, then delete the fake value with index "-1".   Let us know if that works for you.
