Update

Regarding the shredded CD-R: I talked to my source and reminded him of our 2005 conversation. It became clear that further details are not available for public release. In light of this, I have to withdraw my statement. I can't back it up; and that means regardless of whether it's true or false,

decryption failed: secret key not available

Hello, I've seen similar issues in some other posts, but still am unclear as to how to resolve my issue. I am trying to run a script to decrypt a file automatically from our job scheduler (UC4). I am able to run the script from the command prompt or by executing the .bat file from the server.

Importing RSA Private Keys into GPG 2.0.10

I'm trying to find a method to import an RSA Private Key into GPG, i've already god a generated RSA Private Key but when ever I try the import I get: gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. gpg: Total number processed: 0 Which makes sense as it's not OpenPGP data thats in the file! Is there any

Re: OpenPGP card not accessible; ctapi-driver option in gpg.conf does the job for me (with cyberjack reader)

Hi there, I hope I can forward an argument for not dropping (direct?) support for CT/API readers in GnuPG too soon, as Werner often states (and as the ctapi-driver option is also marked as deprecated in the gpg man page). Quite recently I dug out my old OpenPGP card again, which I had bought in

Using a smart card with revoked keys

Hello, some time ago I lost my card reader, so I revoked the keys on the smart card because I wouldn't have been able to use them for quite some time, until I got a new one. Now I managed to get a new card reader, and I discovered that gpg doesn't want to use those subkeys: if I try to decode som

gnupg on celeron and atom cpus

Hi. Does anyone of you have an idea whether it could make problems to use gnupg on Celeron or Atom CPUs? I mean could this have an effect on the PRNG, e.g. that the entropy is worse? Or something similar? Regards, Chris. smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature __

Copy subkeys to primary key

For whatever reason I now have two versions of my private key one without the ELG encryption key and primary key, the other without the RSA signing key. How can I combine them so I have one secret key with both the ELG and RSA subkeys under the primary key. This is my new key sec# 1024D/BE7E87F

Re: Hibernation and secret keys

A good workaround is to use disk encryption (dm-crypt or similar things). Best wishes, Chris. smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
