I admit I am behind but as there were no problems there was no real need to change GPG. As I said in the original message I believe the problem is associated with the way the agent determines the path for the .gnupg directory if the user's home is auto-mounted via Open Directory. The specific error is: gpg-agent[6675]: error binding socket to '/Network/Servers/xx..com/Volumes/USER1/Users-home/xxx/.gnupg/S.gpg-agent': Operation not supported While that path is perfectly valid ($HOME) I have never been able to get it to work with anything for unknown reasons. The path that I believe would work is '/Volumes/USER1/Users-home/xxx/.gnupg/S.gpg-agent'. However, the best path would be ~xxx/.gnupg/S.gpg-agent'. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Network-Mounted-Home-Directory-and-removal-of---passphrase-option-tp25510161p25823176.html Sent from the GnuPG - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

Network Mounted Home Directory and removal of --passphrase option
I am trying to upgrade to GPG2 and am having trouble, I think all stemming from the new user agent feature. My first question: is there a way to simply not use the user agent (i.e. just enter the passphrase as before) since it does not seem to work in my environment? I tried using 'echo' and piping it to the 'gpg' command with '--passphrase-fd 0' but it prompts for the password anyway. Also, it appears to be looking for something related to the user agent in .gnupg and produces an error because whatever path it is using it completely wrong for a network mounted home directory. Where can I fix that path? FWIW, this is on an OS X 10.5 machine managed by Open Directory. Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Network-Mounted-Home-Directory-and-removal-of---passphrase-option-tp25510161p25510161.html Sent from the GnuPG - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
