Hi folks, I'am using a GnuPG smart-card for a long time and it always works except one host :-(
I have got two sub-keys on the card, one for signing and one for decryption. Both keys are 4096 bit in size. The issues are only on the decrpting process: Signing works well, but when I try to decrypt something (an e-mail or an encrypted file) it just says, there is no secret key. I switched on debugging output and it tells me: "public key decryption failed: General error decryption failed: No secret key" I checked $ gpg -K and $gpg --card-status and so on, and it tells me exactly the same i can see on my other computers: there are two keys available on the smart-card. So I am wondering, what the problem is. The version of gpg is 2.0.14 on scientific linux 6. Has anybody else issues using rhel 6 based distros? Or is there another way to check out, what problems gpg has finding the key for decryption? Thanks for any hints! Christopher Beck -- I use GnuPG (GPG) for e-mail encryption and signing. If you want some privacy, my public key ID is 2F9D4F14. The file "singature.asc" this message includes contains a cryptographic signature which enables you to verify this E-Mail really was written by me.
