GnuPG on MS Vista
Hi, it appears to be impossible to connect to any keyservers through gpg on my newly installed Vista box. I have disabled UAC and im running as admin, so that should not be the cause of any problems. Whenever i try to get something from a keyserver i get: gpg: refreshing 1 key from hkp://pgpkeys.pca.dfn.de gpg: requesting key from hkp server pgpkeys.pca.dfn.de gpgkeys: no key data found for hkp://pgpkeys.pca.dfn.de/ gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. gpg: Total number processed: 0 All the keyservers i have tried works well when using their web interface.

openpgp card problem
For the last 2 hours i have been playing with my new openpgp card and reader, trying to figure out how stuff works. So there are a few questions. Can i restore my public key with only the card? Do i need to backup my "secret key" from my local keyring or can i restore it from my card? In case im asked to type the admin pin, and i dont type anything, but just presses enter, will it result in 1 wrong attempt? (im worried that my broken enter button will send 3 keystrokes, as it sometimes does) Suppose i type the admin pin wrong 2 times, and the third time it is correct, will the "wrong pin" counter reset? - JCL ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

Re: How to verify the file was successfully encrypted...
This might be a hard one. When you encrypt to a public key, there is no way gpg can decrypt it, to verify that it can be decrypted, unless it can unlock the private key with your password. The only way i see, is that gpg would have to encrypt 2 times and compare the results. But then again, the same error might happen twice. Does this make any sense? i don't know, this was just what im thinking. ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

show-photos off by defaulf, causes problem?
Recently, a friend had a problem with a key in his keyring that appeared to be valid. However he could not find any link between that key and his only ultimately trusted key. He removed all signatures from that key, but it still appeared to be valid. After importing the key into PGP i noticed that there was a photo uid that had the link between the keys that he could not find. Okay, maybe i missed something here, but could the problem be that show-photos was turned off? are there any good reasons this is turned off by default? --- show-photos Causes --list-keys, --list-sigs, --list-public- keys, and --list-secret-keys to display any photo IDs attached to the key.

Re: "valid from" date?
2006/6/28, Werner Koch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: It is not possible to set a valid from date. Actuall there is no valid from date but just the creatuion time of the key. My key made with PGP shows this: sub 4096R/10BFF302 created: 2006-04-06 expires: 2008-04-06 usage: E sub 4096R/B3DF6DC0 created: 2008-04-06 expires: never usage: E So GPG will see the valid period on the second subkey as 2008-04-06 to never. and not use it before 2008-04-06 ? When selecting a key, GnuPG ignores those created in the future. uhm.. i dont think im getting this right... If you ant to hack support for it, check out make_timestamp(). Can this enable me to set created date´s like, in 2010 if i want? I can see no reason for using a valid from key. Simply create it when you need it. For me, creating a key is a one-time-thing, why not add some sub´s from the start, so i dont have to mess with it later? The latest key which fits the requirements (preference, algorithms etc.) Isent theese algo settings stored with each uid? or do i mix things together? Thanks for your help. - Jorgen Ch.

Re: personal-cipher/digest-preferences
2006/6/23, David Shaw <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Why? You are the person making the signature here. It's your choice what algorithm to use. The recipient only gets to say "these are the algorithms I will accept". Not "this is the algorithm I want you to use". Outside of DSA2, GPG will always select an algorithm that is usable by everyone. If all else fails, it's going to be SHA-1. Because in my case, it is the recipient that wants to verify my Identity, not the other way around.

Re: personal-cipher/digest-preferences
Thanks for you guys help.. :) However, i have a small problem. I dont want to interfere with any selection process by having a personal-cipher/digest-preferences in my options file. I have a RSA and a DSA key, When im using the RSA key i want to use SHA256, and RIPEMD160 for my DSA key, when i use clearsign. Is there anything i can put in my options file that will make gpg use SHA256 for my RSA and RIPEMD160 for my DSA without having the personal-digest-preferences thing in my options file? This is really important to me because i when i clearsign something, i dont have a recipient as a target and i want to use an algorithm of my choice. For encrypt and sign, i want and algorithm of the recipient choice. --- Jorgen Lysdal / 0x01331B97 j.lysdal(at)gmail.com ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
personal-cipher/digest-preferences
If i understand the gpg.man correctly.. The "--personal-cipher-preferences" does only have an effect when encrypting to more than one recipient, (besides from symmetrical encryption algo selection) and the "--personal-digest-preferences" only when encrypting and signing to more than one recipient. Im i right? What does it mean to "factor in their own preferred algorithms when algorithms are chosen via recipient key preferences." Does it mean that, when i encrypt to a key that has, lets say AES TWOFISH, and i use --personal-cipher-preferences TWOFISH AES, is the message TWOFISH encryptet andgb Is there any place i can read in detail how this works? - Jorgen j.lysdal(at)gmail.com / 0x01331B97 ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
