I did a lot of research and digging and was finally able to get the file to decrypt:
c:\temp>gpg2 --batch --try-all-secrets --passphrase pass -o temp.txt -d temp.txt.pgp gpg: anonymous recipient; trying secret key A328FC0E ... gpg: WARNING: cipher algorithm IDEA not found in recipient preferences gpg: okay, we are the anonymous recipient. gpg: encrypted with RSA key, ID 727A253D gpg: old style (PGP 2.x) signature gpg: Signature made 08/15/13 03:31:01 Eastern Daylight Time using DSA key ID C0649AF6 gpg: Can't check signature: No public key gpg: WARNING: message was not integrity protected c:\temp> fwiw, I'd welcome any information on what happened just because I'd like to know what happened. Maybe this helps someone in the future. Thanks for all the help. -- STeve -----Original Message----- From: Werner Koch [mailto:w...@gnupg.org] Sent: Friday, August 16, 2013 10:36 AM To: Steven Bonda Cc: gnupg-users@gnupg.org Subject: Re: No secret key on 1 file On Fri, 16 Aug 2013 14:56, sbo...@advance-medical.com said: > gpg: encrypted with RSA key, ID 727A253D > gpg: decryption failed: No secret key Please check thenoutput of gpg2 -v -K 727A253D If you can't see the reason, you may want to gpg2 -v --edit-key 727A253D to see some more details.
