show-photos off by defaulf, causes problem?
Recently, a friend had a problem with a key in his keyring that appeared to be valid. However he could not find any link between that key and his only ultimately trusted key. He removed all signatures from that key, but it still appeared to be valid. After importing the key into PGP i noticed that there was a photo uid that had the link between the keys that he could not find. Okay, maybe i missed something here, but could the problem be that show-photos was turned off? are there any good reasons this is turned off by default? --- show-photos Causes --list-keys, --list-sigs, --list-public- keys, and --list-secret-keys to display any photo IDs attached to the key. Defaults to no. See also --photo-viewer. - Jorgen Christiansen Lysdal j.lysdal(at)gmail.com 0x01331B97 / 0x972BF22A ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

Card readers supported by GPG's internal drivers
Hi all, I've been playing around with an OpenGPG smartcard and card reader for the last few days, and have a few questions. Is there a compatibility list of drivers supported by GPG's internal card reader driver, other than the relevant part of the HOWTO? Do readers have to support a certain standard to be supported by GPG directly, or is support for each reader implemented individually? I have an ACS ACR30U reader[1] and have followed the HOWTOs instructions on setting up with udev. However, it doesn't seem to work with GPG directly: $ gpg --card-status gpg: pcsc_establish_context failed: no service (0x8010001d) gpg: card reader not available gpg: OpenPGP card not available: general error The reader does support PC/SC though, so I plan to try using PC/SC to access the card. BTW, the link to the gnupg-ccid file (NOT gnupg-ccid.rules) on the HOWTO links back to the HOWTO, not the file: http://www.gnupg.org/(en)/howtos/card-howto/en/smartcard-howto-single.html#id2501406 Thanks in advance for any help, Tony Whitmore [1] http://www.acs.com.hk/Product_Readers.asp?productID=53PCate=Products_PC_Linked_SmartCard_Readers signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

Please try this: http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-devel/2006-July/023000.html Thanks Matze. I've removed the udev rules/script I had previously setup as per the HOWTO and substituted the rules you gave. I've symlinked them into /etc/udev/rules.d too and restarted udev, but get the same result. I'm running Ubuntu Dapper. Am I right in thinking the entries in /proc/bus/usb/XXX/XXX should be modified to match the rules (i.e. group scard, mode 644)? Because they don't seem to be: # ls -l /proc/bus/usb/002/021 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 43 2006-07-11 21:58 /proc/bus/usb/002/021 I get the same failure as reported before even if I manually change the group and permissions on the device node. And yes, my user is in the scard group. :) FWIW, lsusb for the device reports: Bus 002 Device 021: ID 072f:0001 Advanced Card Systems, Ltd AC1030-based SmartCard Reader What can I try next?

Issue: Before I decrypt a file, this file does have a .pgp extension, how do I know if it is a valid encrypted file before I decrypt it? Looking at the man pages, there is a --verify argument, but that deals with the sigfile and not an encrypted file. Basically, I'd like to check the file to make sure it was encrypted properly before I attempt to decrypt it. Suggestions, examples or thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Re: How do I check if a file is a valid encrypted file before I decrypt it?
Before I decrypt a file, this file does have a .pgp extension, how do I know if it is a valid encrypted file before I decrypt it? I'm not sure what you're asking here, to be honest. What's an invalid encrypted file? If I send you an encrypted file containing nothing but random data, the successful decryption of the valid file will be statistically indistinguishable from trying to decrypt it with an incorrect session key. And in some other respects, the OpenPGP standard makes it very easy for an implementation to detect bad or corrupted data and to bail out early. So without knowing precisely what you mean by 'validity', I don't know what to tell you, I'm sorry. ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
