Re: GPG keys for multiple email accounts

The keys GnuPG creates by default have signature and certification capabilities on the primary key and encryption on a subkey.

But this would prevent you from using the mainkey as a high security key (useful if you don't have a separate one). ... but advising to set encryption capability on the primary key goes against the advice of not using one key for both encryption and signing. Also, why not create the separate one if you don't have it? You wouldn't get the certifications that are already on the other key, but you save yourself the hassle of having multiple, active encryption-capable (sub)keys in one key and people having to select one of those.

Re: not recognizing my passphrase after moving from XP to Win7

From my point of view that is far better than just having each key-ring having the same random_seed file. As one of the people to object, let me repeat that you simply shouldn't copy the random_seed file to another system, but let it create its own. I agree that having each keyring start out with the same random_seed file is a bad situation, which is trivially avoided. Even removing it after the copying is less work than monkey-bashing the hex part of your keyboard in a hexeditor :). HTH, Peter. -- I use the GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG) in combination with Enigmail.

Re: GpgEX for 64 bit Windows test version
Hi, thanks for your reply. I can' replicate it on my German Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit (6.01.7600). However, I recall that I noticed such a behaviour during development. My windows version here is 6.1.7601. - Did you just install a gpgex DLL or is that the one from gpg4win-light-2.1.2-beta20.exe ? I've installed gpg4win-2.1.1.exe which fails to register the gpgex and then installed the gpgex from the archive: ftp://ftp.g10code.com/g10code/gpgex/gpgex-1.0.0-beta24-bin.zip with the regsrv32 command as an admin. - What codepage are you using? It is different from the default? I'm using the default codepage Deutsch (Deutschland) of a German win7 installation. - Did you set one of the environment variables: LANG, LC_ALL, or LS_MESSAGES? Just checked my environment variables with SET and none of the above is set. If you need the whole output of SET i can send it to you via a direct e-mail.
