How to NOT gnutar files during encryption?
Thank you for your responses; but, you are all missing my point - and not answering my question. First, before encryption by Kleopatra, the file IS one (1) real ZIP file (e.g., filename.zip) After encryption and upload to us, the file is now an encrypted TAR file, with the ZIP file inside (e.g., filename.zip.gpg) Notice that there is NO indication of TAR anywhere in the filename. Yes, I can rewrite our production processes to look for files of type TAR, and automate that. We receive ~1000 encrypted files per day, and we have never needed this before. However, if they can turn OFF that TAR subprocess - which you state ought only to happen when requested to encrypt multiple files - then, this client's files will automatically process just like the thousands of other clients' files we process without incident every single day. So, to repeat myself: How to NOT gnutar files during encryption? Please, advise. Thank you. ~ Mike On Wed, Jul 19, 2017 at 5:43 AM, Werner Koch <w...@gnupg.org> wrote: > On Tue, 18 Jul 2017 23:30, g...@mdsresource.net said: > > > Further investigation reveals that Kleopatra is gnuTARring the ZIP file > > prior to encryption. > > That should only happen when you select multipe files or a directory. > This invokes the pgp-zip method of encrypting multiple files.
