Hi,
Question 1 :
Is there any way to store a password in a keyring ? I
don't have a database for this. I was just thinking that I can hash
a password and use a keyring to store it to avoid the need for a
database.
Not within GPG. GPG stores keys within keyrings. Passphrases are
stored outside the system (but see the gpg-agent for a local
passphrase cache).
Question 2 :
Can I split a private(decrypting) key and rejoin it using
GPG ? The split keys are given by two different people and rejoined.
Not using GPG, but there are several tools available for split keys on
the net. For example: http://point-at-infinity.org/ssss/
I want to use the bouncy castle GPG API.
That is not GPG. That is a completely different implementation of the
OpenPGP standard. You should ask on the Bouncy Castle forums.
