Re: Symmetric encrypt many files (batch mode)
Assuming you want to encrypt every single file in a directory tree, your
best bet would be to use the find command. Something like this:
find /SomeDirectory -type f -exec gpg2 --batch --cipher-algo AES256
--force-mdc --symmetric --passphrase-file /FILE -o {}.gpg {} \;
The above will save each file with the same name + an extension of ".gpg".
The cipher-algo & force-mdc options aren't required of course. Just a
personal recommendation.

Mabe you should consider using a LUKS/dmcrypt container/partition. It would make things a lot easier and more fail-proof for you. ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

Re: Symmetric encrypt many files (batch mode)
If you can get a list (comma, space separated) of the files, bash would do it nicely? whatever you do, you'll need that? then obtain the basename, $bn and use a for each on the list?

Symmetric encrypt many files (batch mode)
Hi All! I want to symmetrically encrypt many hundreds of files under Linux, the files stored in many subdirectories. I am looking for a shell script which can do it for me. What is the simplest way to do it? Best regards, Egon ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
