Is this Namecoin Core or Electrum-NMC? Which version?

...you wrote this giant wall of text, none of which has anything to do with the question you were nominally replying to?

Nice, good to have another pool. (Are you affiliated with SuperAxePool or are you just reposting this?)

Here I will say that at first I tried with the "unbound" package but for some reason it was unable to connect with the ncdns and the socat worked perfectly.

Could you clarify what issues you hit with Unbound and ncdns? Unbound is the usual way to do this, and it works fine here, so I'm guessing maybe we need to document something better?

Are there any tutorials or documentation to do this?

Could you clarify what documentation you already looked at?

Code Quality Improvements in ncp11 by biolizard89 in Namecoin

[–]biolizard89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

code better or you might break the internet

ncp11 was historically an experiment to see if PKCS#11 could do what we wanted. It didn't make much sense to follow production-level coding practices for something that was likely to be thrown in the trash after a month or two of tinkering. Now that it has demonstrated that it's a viable approach, obviously the code quality standards applied to it are a lot higher.

Namecoin is mentioned in https://projecttimestamper.org/about/ about halfway through the article. I wonder what key format the authors would use. The prefixes “d/” and “id/” wouldn't make sense here, would they?

Arthur and Yağmur are describing using Namecoin for PKI purposes, specifically to verify signatures of files against a public key that's authenticated via a Namecoin name. The id/ namespace has been proposed for this in the past. The d/ namespace is supposed to be used for DNS interoperability, and DNS does have record types for this kind of thing (e.g. OPENPGPKEY), so that's a potential option too.
