I apologize for repeating myself here: I don't mean to be condescending, but apparently my answer was not clear. I'll try to be more clear. You're using a DSA-1k key. It's limited to 160 bits. That means you cannot use SHA256. The best you can get is SHA256 truncated down to 160 bits, but at that point there's no difference between SHA256 and RIPEMD160. They both have the exact same margin of security: there are no known attacks against either. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
