CRC error encrypted_mdc packet with unkown version 255

2005-07-10 Thread Henk M. de Bruijn
Hi all,

Next to Windows XP I am using GnuPG 1.4.2rc2 and GPGshell 3.44.

After trying to encrypt a message containing a signed key, I am getting
this message, does anybody know what it means?

gpg: CRC error; 4BF535 - 4F6694
gpg: encrypted_mdc packet with unknown version 255

TIA

Re: Revoking Keys

2005-07-10 Thread Charly Avital
Upload the revocation certificates to a keyserver. They will be
disseminated to other keyservers automatically.

 Recently I generated some keypairs with their relevant revocation

 I am therefore dependent on using an old keyring without these new keys 
 plus the revocation certificates.  I am not clear exactly how to revoke 
 the keys I've generated and now have lost.  I've looked up the man 
 pages and the html howto but they just refer to generating a revocation 
 certificate and use
 
 revuid
 
 But how do I revoke keys on the keyserver so I can generate new ones?

No, that's just the point.  I have the revocation certificates, I can 
get the public keys from keyservers but (obviously) not the secret keys 
and I didn't have a chance to save them.  Using an old saved keyring I 
have some old public and secret keys, but not the recently generated 
ones.

If I can revoke the keys then I can generate new keypairs (and save them 
this time!)

That's all you need. Import the public keys from keyservers into your local 
keyring. Import the revocation certificate into the local keyring. Send the 
now revoked key to the keyservers.

The point of a revocation certificate is that you don't need the secret key to 
revoke the key - that's why the certificate must be kept SAFE!

gpg --gen-revoke (thekey)

This outputs the revocation certificate.  Save it somewhere, and
you're done.

First of all, are you using Windows or Linux, and if Linux, which 
desktop (KDE, Gnome, etc)?

There are many different versions of PGP.  What you are doing will
work with some, but not others.

In general, if the version of PGP you are using is even vaguely
recent, you don't need any options at all.
