| + | Use [[openssl]] to generate a private/public key pair (using here similar naming scheme to SSH so it makes more sense): | ||

| + | <code> | ||
| + | openssl genrsa -out dkim_rsa 1024 | ||
| + | openssl rsa -in dkim_rsa -pubout -out dkim_rsa.pub | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Here's **an example** of a private and public key pair: | ||

| + | You'll need the pubkey string to add to a DNS TXT record: | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | grep -v "^-" dkim_rsa.pub | awk 1 ORS='' | ||
| + | </code> | ||

| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Choose a name selector to use in the DNS text record which will prefix the name ''._domainkey''. Here, the selector is named ''nx''. | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | nx._domainkey.beandog.org | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | For the value of the TXT record, use DKIM version, the key type, and the public key string: | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | v=DKIM1; k=rsa; p=MIGfMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUAA4GNADCBiQKBgQCt5N5njq8VngIYr9S6KbIcfqkVAUdo2Bi7JoAa0G6TuOzCg73/ByfJzOZFaKlOLdihVfJy2LqaciMtseBJoXhMgH/eE2tLEXM3Sw4ub4PSXsXsYysSSqzFdberGaiRTDbavdTIDfpYmX8jyyP1Rg5j1S3rppeHeBixA2fcdrWSRQIDAQAB | ||
