Dear Team, Thank you very much, in advance for your time and support. I have 3 questions which I would appreciate help on....
My environment has GPG 1.4.9 on Solaris 10 OS. Question 1 - I am using gpg to encrypt a gzip file. Is it wrong to do this ( file/block corruption or ) ? for example my command order is 1. gzip sourcefile.txt -- output is sourcefile.txt.gz 2. gpg --encrypt --recipient f...@w.com sourcefile.txt.gz -- output is sourcefile.txt.gz.gpg -- I am able to decrypt and uncompress and read the file I am not sure if gpg also compresses by default. I used the --verbose option along with --compress-algo , however the compression state is omitted from the verbose detail. I also find --compress-algo <1,2,3> work , higher numbers 4 and above throw an error - 'gpg: selected compression algorithm is invalid' Question 2 - How to know if GPG is indeed compressing and what's the default compression value ? [image: image.png] Question 3 - How to find the default settings of my gpg like character set , compression value etc. I have not configured anything in in the gpg.conf file Best Regards, Swarna Kembayee
