+.SH NAME
+keyd \- Backend key serving daemon for the onak PGP keyserver 
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.PP
+.B keyd
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+keyd is a backend daemon for the onak PGP keyserver. It listens on a Unix
+socket for connections from the various CGI and mail front ends and
+handles talking to the backend database. It is intended to be of use in
+high load keyservers to reduce the time spent in connecting and
+disconnecting from the key database.
+.PP
+keyd is currently fairly alpha code; it is only recommended that you use
+it if you know what you are doing.
