Hey Werner, thank you for your reply. So it works with both? It would be useful to write this in the gpg4win documentation. I could do this. Greetings Am 18.11.2016 8:27 AM schrieb "Werner Koch" : On Thu, 17 Nov 2016 20:25, lukas.troebin...@gmail.com said: > ca-cert-file=/path/to/CA/sks-keyserv

Hi, I'd like to make a fresh linux installation. What is the best way to use my keys and settings I've already configured on my old OS? Do I back things up, or make a copy from the config. file? I've just started using Gnupg (and Linux). Thank you.

I have a similar setup and have been doing it successfully. I have two yubikey neos with signing keys. I found that because of bugs in gpg 2.1 I had to put the same signing key onto both neos. Once I did that it worked smoothly. It would be preferable to use different keys and I'll do that if these

Hey, when using the sks keyserver you can choose to use the HKPS version. In the gpg.conf file you need to specify the path to the CA cert "keyserver-options ca-cert-file=/path/to/CA/sks-keyservers.netCA.pem". In Windows, what is the correct slash to use? Is it / or \? Thank you guys _

On the topic of open source RNG, I own the OneRNG and have attempted to use it with gpg but failed in the past. I never made another attempt. OneRNG was a kickstarter crowd funding campaign and is now available from their webshop. It's supposed to be an open source RNG but I'm not qualified to sp
