Another option may be: # portupgrade -N security/gnupg which will upgrade all dependencies, then install gnupg. > (Would I need to be logged in as root, or would a super user be fine?) I'm pretty sure you'll need to be root (or using sudo to execute the commands as root). > 6. Would I need to reboot to have full functionality? Not likely at all. I'd be very surprised if any of this required a reboot. >>2) Generate a keypair for the email recipient. > Like this? > > # gpg --gen-key Yep. >>3) Craft your script to use the "gpg" program to encrypt the outbound email >> with the public key generated in step #2. >>4) mail() > Something like these? > http://www.pantz.org/scripting/php/gpgemail.shtml > http://www.awtrey.com//files/php/gpgsend.txt Sure. The second one has this block: $commandline = "echo $body | /usr/bin/gpg --homedir /home/username/.gnupg -a -r 'Full Username' -e -"; if ($debug==1) { system($commandline); } else { exec($commandline,$encrypted); } If you've already written the mailer, you could probably stick the above (modified to suit) somewhere before the mail() function and leave the rest of your script intact. >>5) Profit! > Could you be *VERY* specific on how to do this? ;^) Sure! Just send $29.95 (plus $11.23 s/h) for my three-step program. ;-) > Thanks! No problem. Good luck! -- Kirk Strauser "94 outdated ports on the box, 94 outdated ports.
