Hi All,
Is there a way to get GnuPG to complete encryption, if there is at least
one valid public key specified? I am trying automate my encryption
process, and I am hoping to be able to get away with not having to
specify
Thank you. I actually decided last week to verify whether the each key
is valid before I perform the encryption. I used the --list-keys command
along with a loop to accomplish this with ease.

When using gpg with the --symmetric flag (as when symmetrically
encrypting a file with a passphrase), is the passphrase salted and
hashed? Is so, how many times is it hashed, and what hashing
algorithm is used for this process? Is this controlled by some
parameter in the gpg.conf file or command
Its often been mentioned on this mailing list, that 3DES is
notoriously slow. On the flipside, what cipher is considered the
fastest -- or the most computationally efficient (if this term even
applies)? Are there similar relative results among the GnuPG hashes?
Thanks

Yes. Unless you change that safe default with --s2k-mode.
Is so, how many times is it hashed, and
Is there a maximum file size that gpg 1..4.5 can encrypt?

There are quite a few bits and details around this, but in general, it
is whatever the maximum file size your OS supports.
How big are the files you're talking about?

Thanks -- very clear explanations. How long can the passphrase be? I
assume it would be truncated at a particular length. For example if I
passes a Whirlpool Hash as the passphrase, would the entire 128-digit
hexadecimal hash be
