BTW, I just noticed that there was an on-list-only email which gave
details on how to extract and replace-during-decryption these, so
Thank you Vincent,
I am really ashamed! Yes you are right: encryption is normally done with a
public key. (I am blushing). I forgot, because nobody has a PGP-Key to
correspond with. The only use for my own PGP-key was to encrypt my own
Password-file, AND this with my private key, of course! Onl
Hello all,
Thank you for your answers. Hope I respond to your questions:
I encrypt in my Shell as follows - I am doing it just now with a Backup File on
my desktop:
$ gpg bu_pw_new.txt.gpg
gpg: WARNING: no command supplied. Trying to guess what you mean ...
gpg: encrypted with 2048-bit ELG k

Two ideas from a gpg-internal *UN*aware point of view:
- I assume gpg file encryption works by generating a random
Did you encrypt to yourself as well as to the pause key for some reason?
Are you a pause admin? It sounds like you encrypted to both yourself and
pa...@pause.perl.org for some reason. If that's the case and you cannot
find your private key, you could maybe ask a pause admin to decrypt and

Hello all,
Perhaps somebody out there could be of some help. I use since 10 years now
GnuPG in my Shell to encrypt my Passwords. I only open this file, from time to
time to look up some pws which I need for banking, crypto or to check, which of
