Re: cross-OS transparent encryption
Erpo wrote: The spanish thread on the list right now is revolving around the problem of sharing encrypted data between WinXP and Linux. The original poster wants to share a read/write partition between the two OSs on a laptop and have transparent encryption of the files on that partition. I said that NTFS will do this (windows only) as well as dm-crypt (linux only), but I'm stumped as far as cross-platform solutions with compatible on-disk formats. The only suggestion I could offer was to use FAT32 and manually encrypt and decrypt the files before using them (yuck). Any non-spanish-speakers have suggestions? Eric what is the device name of his windows partition? i have found a way to mount windows partitions in linux at startup. as root, gedit /etc/fstab. add a line like this just before the swap line: /dev/hda1 /winauto auto,user,exec,rw,async 0 0 create a folder named /win, and reboot. on the gnome desktop there should be a drive with the title 'win'. next, configure whatever you need to run off /win.

David after reading this message, i compiled gpg 1.4.2rc1 and it cleaned out my extra sigs just like you said, but it didn't get rid of them on the keyserver. promptly after cleaning my sigs, i uploaded my key to the server, then downloaded it from the same server. the unwanted sigs still came in. gpg or pgp or somebody should figure out a way for people to delete keys or certain parts of them from all the keyservers!

Re: cross-OS transparent encryption
Erpo wrote: He's already doing this. Now he wants his system to automatically encrypt every file before it's written to that partition, and decrypt every file every time an application tries to read it in either OS. DM-Crypt does this for Linux, and NTFS has this capability in windows, but AFAIK there's no cross-platform solution. Linux doesn't have NTFS write support (let alone NTFS encryption support) and Windows certainly won't touch a DM-Crypt'd partition. Someone else suggested Bestcrypt and I passed that on, but it's neither Free software nor freeware. Eric i wonder if it's possible to format all your partitions with 2 filesystems. it would be cool to have an fs that's fat32 and ext3 at the same time, and it would solve hernan's difficulty.

Help on Enigmail - Mozilla 1.7.7. with Win XPP
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I'm totally new to GPG (I know the concepts behind PGP) well you can rest easy because gpg is basically a free command line version of pgp, and the two are fully compatible. I use Win XPP + Mozilla 1.7.7. I've recently downloaded enigmail to use with Mozilla - as I was advised that Enigmail has most functions for a startup user good choice. i use enigmail for my email encryption and signing with gpg. - Lets say I get a signed message - like the ones from this gnupg-users list - I click on the pen ICON (displayed by Mozilla) to check the signature - I get a message public key not found - I proceed to try and download the public key from one of the 4 servers listed in Enigmail ~ I suppose defaults as of now in Enigmail - I get either a *socket error* or a *key not found error* - How do I proceed further ? - Is there a better way to import public keys into enigmail ? i don't see why importing with enigmail would be a problem, but there are better ways of importing keys than with enigmail. first, you could visit a keyserver like http://pgp.mit.edu/ or http://pgpkeys.pca.dfn.de/, and look up a person or company in there. you could also find a gpg-compatible keyserver and type the following into a dos-box: gpg --keyserver keyserver of your choice --recv-keys key ID, ie 0x12345678 - where is the public key ring stored by enigmail ? the public keyring used by enigmail is the same one that gpg uses. so find your WinXP user's Application Data folder, go to gnupg and the public keyring will be pubring.gpg (unless you have it configured to be elsewhere, and you would know if you did.) so i hope i helped, and good luck with gpg! dan mundy -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFCnjArTbbnG4BhqDARAvutAKCTqpOoCWnkGtNG9DQmADrbg7S3hgCfVf/C OfW9zrmib7GUnN7EIsQ6dvo= =nXB3 -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
