There is the pks-0.9.4 server (known as the Horowitz server, after its 
creator). It is under the old BSD license, the one with the advertising 
clause. It is a free software license, but is incompatible with the GPL. If 
you can deal with that, you can use it. It is the most common keyserver, it 
requires no backend like pgp or gpg, but it has a few quirks. If a key with 
more than one subkey is imported, all subkeys are totally messed up. If you 
want a GPL'd keyserver (which is in alpha), talk to V. Alex Brennan 
<vab@cryptnet.net>.
