importing large keyring
Hi! Recently (somewhere around the update from gnupg 1.2.x to 1.4.x) my keyring got corrupted: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gpg --export /dev/null gpg: buffer shorter than subpacket gpg: signature packet without timestamp gpg: buffer shorter than subpacket gpg: signature packet without keyid gpg: buffer shorter than subpacket [...] However, most of the keys are still OK, so I'd like to use the output of gpg --export to re-create the keyring. The keyring is rather large (70MB) and after importing several thousand keys gpg uses more memory than is available as physical RAM, so it's continously swapping. After 2 days without significant progress I've aborted the import. Is there a way to split up the keydump into chunks of some thousand keys, so I can process those one after another?

Re: OpenPGP Smartcard with Cygwin

How do I get the Smartcard working under Cygwin? I found no information on this topic (OpenPGP smartcard cygwin) in the web. You may want to try the option --pcsc-driver winscard.dll Not sure whether this works. Better use a plain gpg build for Windows. Under Windows itself the OpenPGP card works fine. (Except, that when no card is inserted in the (SCR335) card reader while signing an error window pops up telling that Die Anweisung in 0x7c9211de veweist auf Speicher in 0x Der Vorgang read konnte nicht auf dem I have done some debugging and it seems that it is indeed a driver problem.

GNUPG library for C#?
Hello, I am new to C# coding. I have managed to create a console application which opens a process (ProcessStartInfo, etc) to run the gpg.exe with a given set of arguments. I would love to be able to eliminate the usage of the EXE, and instead integrate GPG's functionality in the form of a DLL or COM object. I've scoured the web via Teoma and Google, and have found a few references to people who have written their own wrappers to incorporate GPG functionality without reliance on the EXE. Unfortunately these led to dead or stale links, and further I have never created my own wrapper in the way these folks describe. If I might find this info by searching the archives please let me know, otherwise if someone could please direct me to some helpful info I would be most appreciative. Thank you! -- Alan ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

I often work with keys dumped straight from pks without doing a gpg --import on them. You should be able to do the same with SKS. -- Jason Harris | NIC: JH329, PGP: This _is_ PGP-signed, isn't it?

Cant create directory error
Hi there im having problems trying to decrypt a message using PHP or Perl. When i run the perl script directly from the linux bash it works just fine, but when i run the script from the browser it doesnt work. Checkin the apache logs it says: Name main::passphrase used only once: possible typo at /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/decrypt.pl line 10. gpg: fatal: ~/.gnupg: can't create directory: No such file or directory I create the keys using root as user. I got the .gnupg directory on /root with the correct keys in there. I have the correct keys in my local repository. I dont know what im doing wrong. My gpg version is 1.4.1 Any help would be useful. Thanks a lot. Carlos Andres Medina ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
Re: 1.4.1 won't retrieve key from keyserver?
David, Has this issue been fixed? Here's a recap of what I've observed. I'm using TB 1.0.2 and gpg 1.4.1 (for windows, obviously) :) --- behavior when searching for keys using GPG 1.4.1 from the command line: hkp: searches and finds it, but doesn't import the key. can't find a valid key block. taking the 'openpgp' option out of the gpg.conf file fixes this. ldap: searches and finds the key, and is able to import the key. it works both with and without the 'openpgp' option. http: gpgkeys says that this type of server only supports importing keys. I can't get importing to work, with or without the 'openpgp' option. -Jason Jason Markley wrote: David Shaw wrote: That said, keyserver imports on W32 should work with --openpgp set as well.

Most people don't back up, probably because of the disparity between hard drive sizes and backup media; I know I don't want to make a stack of 40 DVD-Rs every week. Once in a while we all get bitten. As for your GPG problem, I can't offer you much help. I remember hearing about a feature that would help you regenerate your public key from your private key, but you're going to need your private key in order to do that. You're probably not going to get your keys back. As far as generating and passing out a revocation, it's probably not necessary. All a revocation does is tell poeple who have your key not to trust any further messages signed by that key, and you're already going to be able to do that when you start distributing your new public key to your friends.

Gvim and gpg
Hi GPG users, I've successfully used gpg from vim for years, using the autocmds easily found with google. However, when using gpg from gvim, I get this: :!gpg --symmetric gpg: cannot open `/dev/tty': No such device or address shell returned 2 If I try the --no-tty option: :!gpg --symmetric --no-tty gpg: Sorry, no terminal at all requested - can't get input shell returned 2 Root privs, setuid, etc. don't work. And my /dev/tty device is there and working: $ ls -l /dev/tty crwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5, 0 Apr 20 19:48 /dev/tty Anybody have any idea why it doesn't work? Again, it works with the normal vim client.
