Perhaps You should request a resend.

I thought it would be gpg --import-secret-keys key id, but that doesn't seen to work. Two problems: 1) There is no --import-secret-keys option. See the manpage for valid commands. 2) How would specifying a key id for a key that hasn't been imported yet work? You can use a key id for keys already on your keyrings or when searching public keyservers, but for importing, you need to pass a path or the key data via standard input. You just want to use gpg --import /path/to/secret-key as you would for importing a public key. You might also want to set the trust level on the imported secret key (via gpg --edit-key $keyid trust). -- ToddOpenPGP - KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~ The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth. pgpPWsrFAissd.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

I thought it would be gpg --import-secret-keys key id, but that doesn't seen to work. I am not sure how is the command to do it, since I usually use some GUI to do those things, but, *in my opinion*, it would be a good idea to upgrade to gpg 1.4.9, since that is the current version. Version 1.4.5 is RFC2440 compliant, and version 1.4.9 is RFC4880 compliant...
