[LUG] gpg - revoking a userid




Hi all, (this might be one for NeilW)

Is it possible to revoke a userid on a gpg key, i would like to revoke my 
unused (work) UID. I can do this locally, and it shows up in gpg command line 
and kgpg, but this info never ends up on a keyserver. So if i then re import 
the key into an empty gpg keyring both UIDs are present and fully functional. 
I have clearly missed a step or a concept here. 

What started this off is www.keyserver.net is listing my (work) UID as my 
primary UID so it shows the wrong (work) email address, gpg shows my propper 
(home) email address as primary (which is what should happen). Am i in 
trouble here?

Thanks
