Re: where to start with PGP/GPG?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I never needed to use pgp till now. So I'm not sure where to start. Is security/gnupg the way to go? Any other advice? Thanks Anton You might like to look at: http://www.cyberdelix.net/tech/bsd-gpg.htm as a start. Its got a list of related artcles with the page that might give you some other directions in which to look. The gnupg-users mailing list MIGHT be able to give you more FreeBSD-specific help, but I must confess I have not seen any FreeBSD specific answers or questions for a long time. Anyway, here is the URL for the mailing list(s): http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/mailing-lists.en.html ++ Graham Todd Using gNewSense Linux 3.0 Parkes -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlIQjpQACgkQklFwVWr4Yu+KDQCgmdb5GN4HufoirmxOISbKayAl Fw0AoOX2qeMft3ogEiM38ho2Fjkzurnj =VE0D -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Any other advice? security/gnupg + security/pinentry is the way to go. I wonder if pinentry should be made a required port for gnupg. This is because gpg2 --gen-keys refuses to run unless pinentry is installed. Perhaps this is up the maintaniner, but to me this sounds like a requirement.

At least I cannot generate keys without it.
