2010-03-21 Thread Hauke Laging
Hello, I have just bought a gnupg smartcard, copied my subkeys to it, and it works. I have been using a key on several computers. Now I want the other systems to use the smartcard, too, so that I can delete the private keys there. The content of the smartcard is shown by --card-status and I cou
