I would have to actually see the output of gpg --list-keys to definitively answer but...
1) be wary distributing any information related to private keys. So you probably shouldn't show anybody the output of --list-secret-keys... 2) "fingerprints" are distillation of some large amount of information down to a very small set of information with the property that if two large chunks differ by even a small amount then the keys will differ as well (and preferably will differ by a great deal. So you should be able to tell if you are talking about the same keys by comparing their fingerprints. I don't know what the "sub" is either. - Jeff On Tue, 2003-07-22 at 00:48, Louie Miranda wrote: > I mean, for ex this one. > > > GPG/PGP ID: 26384A3A > > Fingerprint: D9FF DF4A 2D46 A353 A289 E8F5 AA75 DCBE 2638 4A3A > > Is this different from the one that i generated? > > > -- > Thank you, > Louie Miranda ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Louie Miranda" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Jeff Wiegley, Ph.D." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "Debian-User" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, July 22, 2003 3:38 PM > Subject: Re: how to have a gpg public key? > > > > These are good docs, really appreciate it a lot.
