Re: Difference Kleopatra vs WinPT

2014-11-29 Thread Schlacta, Christ
You're confusing gpa and winpt. Gpa is the default utility included with
winpt, but kleopatra is also included with winpt. Comparison wise, kleo has
more features, but gpa's futures are more... useful? I find myself using
gpa daily, and kleopatra only on rare occasion

 As far as I can see Kleopatra and WinPT are similar, competing tools for
 the same purpose:

 Management of pgp keys  certificates.

 What are the differences in details?

 Which one is better/more used?

Keygrip v fingerprint ?

2014-11-29 Thread Philip Jackson
I see on :

https://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/Option-Index.html#Option-Index

references to both --with-keygrip and --with-fingerprint.  When I try
--with-keygrip on gnupg2.0.26, it appears not to be a valid option.

The only other time I have seen a reference to a keygrip (and I don't remember
where I saw it), it seemed to me that a keygrip looked just like a fingerprint.

Could someone please explain the difference between a keygrip and a fingerprint
or point me to a relevant document ?

It is available in 2.1

The keygrip is protocol-agnostic whereby the fingerprint would differ
e.g. between OpenPGP and X.509. From [0] (note [2]):

The keygrip is a unique identifier for a key pair, it is
independent of any protocol, so that the same key can be used with
different protocols.  PKCS-15 calls this a subjectKeyHash; it can be
calculated using Libgcrypt's gcry_pk_get_keygrip ().

Hi bro, :)

Thanks for correcting me.

 You can delete these values from your current gpg.conf.

 Reason 1: Those values are used when options like 
 'personal-cipher-preferences', 'personal-digest-preferences' and 
 'personal-compress-preferences' are not given! But here, you already 
 gave those three options already.
 
 This isn't quite true.  personal-*-preferences won't affect s2k
 preferences or cert-digest-algo.  However, you're absolutely correct to
 advise against using cipher-algo or digest-algo.
 
 (I *think* I'm right on this, but I can't promise I am, nor have I done
 a quick empirical test to check.  Take the preceding with a grain of salt.)
 
 Reason 2: Those values are known to break the OpenPGP standard.
 
 Some of them are serious problems (digest-algo and cipher-algo).  The
 others are mostly safe.  s2k is only used by the user on their own
 machine, so there isn't much concern about interoperability with other
 OpenPGP clients.
 
 That's the same OpenPGP does. OpenPGP standard is just a reference 
 model. Anyone can modify it and include unique features. But it's
 not necessary to be those 'unique features' to be included in every 
 OpenPGP implemented products. But when it comes to communicating
 each other, there comes the problem if there's no common standard
 rule.
 
 Those who are concerned about OpenPGP conformance should add openpgp
 to the end of their gpg.conf file.  :)
 
 But at the same time, these settings might be incompatible with
 older softwares.
 
 Nope!  The preference list you gave will not cause troubles with any
 OpenPGP application, not even old PGP 5.x.  If there's no preference
 list on your recipient's public key (which does happen, from time to
 time), OpenPGP will gracefully degrade to use SHA-1 and 3DES.  SHA-1 is
 getting pretty long in the tooth, but 3DES is still solid as a rock.
 
 My usual joke about 3DES -- which, like most of my jokes, is a way of
 telling truth with a laugh -- is that 3DES has all the beauty of a
 Soviet workers' housing bloc, all the aesthetics of the Socialist
 Realism school of art, and yet has been turning brilliant young
 cryptanalysts into burned-out alcoholic wrecks for the last 35 years.  :)
