Hello to all,
my newbie post...
I am struggling with gpg.conf for GnuPG-Pack-14.11.x (gpg 1.4.18).
Dealing with encryption should be secure, cross-mailer interoperability and
compatibility should be maximized between PGP/GnuPG/GPG/OpenPG and different
os (Win/Mac/Linux).
There are some known has
Hello,
beware of compatibility issues...
Older versions of Debian (< sarge) don't support SHA512, AFAIK.
Many Smartcards are limited to key size <= 3072 bit, AFAIK.
RSA signatures are larger than DSA signatures, even if same bit size.
So, what are the most useful cross-over compatibility settings

I am working with GnuPG-Pack, which includes extended gpg-1.4.18.
This versions supports smartcard keys with 4096bit?

Hello to all,
while creating some new v4-RSA keypairs a compatibility issue occurs with
old PGP-6.5.x:
C,E should be RSA, S should be DSA (2048 with SHA256 for smaller
signatures...)

PGP-6.5.x only for testing purpose on an

After further investigation:
Actual version of 'Symantec Encryption Desktop 10.2.3' (former known as
PGP...) is supporting subkeys for signing or encryption in both directions,
accurate interaction with GPG-2.0.26/GPG-1.4.18.
NOT working with subkeys for signing or encryption are:
PGP-6.5.1 / 6.
