I am not sure if it is a GPG function, or just a function of GPGshell, but I can group public keys, and encrypt files to all the public keys in that group. What operating system are you using? If GPG doesn't allow it, maybe there is some GUI available for your operating system that can do the trick... Of course, you would have to take the time to make the group... Asking google about the subject, I found the following: _______________________________________________Quoting From: Dennis Lambe Jr. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2003 12:10 AM To: Oertel, Paul Cc: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Re: GPG Recipients List On Wed, 2003-12-03 at 03:53, Oertel, Paul wrote: > I want to make a group of recipients.

GnuPG splits its command-line arguments up into options and commands. Any option can also be specified in your config file, ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf, which will cause it to be in effect for every gpg command you run. As a result of this, the documentation lists a lot of command-line switches that are of little use on the command line, but useful as part of your config file. The "group" option is one of these. If you specify a group on the command line, that group only exists for the lifetime of the command that you are running (and is therefore nigh useless). If you specify a group in the config file, that group will exist to gpg whenever you run it, allowing you to specify it as a recipient of encrypted messages (-r groupname). It looks like you're expecting the --group command-line option to create a group which persists for longer than the lifetime of the gpg process you gave it to. That's not how configuration works in GnuPG. Any change that you want to make to the behavior of all subsequent gpg processes must be made in the config file. __________________________________________End of quoting Best Regards -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJItwJXAAoJEMV4f6PvczxAGswIAKR2RAOOl8ZxzicYGDhvclHv 1/9LcNdV2TEFPpY2JbCek5gtCweMUbTzfUrpRvZ3JtSWZEJ/MF4caMh0zOOYIT1T c9sESObngNa6tqjCTos3oqhc8c10rwYdbQXq7C8VTzDLuRDSfBLt7aYKvVLsqadW I91h6oYULa7FYSMNOG6xjNBCZRm0nNYwoEiBeFvfU2DGuw01YV0vIib64UPUj0nD 42zbXoig30ND7agrT6Hq6DCDIiQTOQJeHkOca5Tl2D6dHHxT4v+a2pXKXeWrWbvo HTRXSVMtkbu4mZjiw721ryE2ziZe/q7+Qj1htHWp8bL1dNwdJ5+jUzOekmmpCVw= =QVKY -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
