verify CHV1 failed - not able to sign
Hi all, I just figured out, that I am not able to sign with my OpenPGP fellowship smartcard any more. The error message is: gpg: signatures created so far: 274 gpg: verify CHV1 failed: invalid passphrase gpg: signing failed: invalid passphrase gpg: signing failed: invalid passphrase I don't know what the problem is as the card worked quite well the last weeks without any problems. En- and decrypting files is working without any problems. Here on the machine GnuPG 1.4.2rc1 is installed. I am running Debian sarge. And the only change I can think of was running aptitude update and upgrade during the last days. Thank you, Matze -- Join the Fellowship and protect your freedom!

I think S and E stand for Signing and Encryption > respectively but what about A and C? C = Certifying. A = Authentication. C is used to indicate the key can sign other keys. A is a hint that the key might be used for authentication (logins for example). Timo ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
Smart card signing failure
Hi all, I'm having a tough time trying to get a smart card to work. I followed the card-howto to the letter to initialize the card and generate the keys. This works, and gpg --card-status seems to work just fine. When I try to sign a file, though, I get: > gpg -u card --detach-sign test.txt gpg: detected reader `OMNIKEY CardMan 2020 0' gpg: signing failed: invalid argument gpg: signing failed: invalid argument I have also tried --disable-ccid, as this is a pc/sc card reader, but that has no effect. Any hints as to what I am doing wrong? Kurt. ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
