Re: Setup encrypted email

Yes! All the encryption happens on your computer (and or your phone) and you have complete control of the process. The flip side of this is you are responsible for the whole process. There are *many* ways to go about this for different people in different situations. Here is just one option. *

Re: Smart cards

using openkeychain with a yubikey nfc is totally solid, and convenient. I've been using them for years. they also plug into the bottom of the phones which some people prefer. On Tue, Dec 11, 2018, 10:14 AM Damien Goutte-Gattat via Gnupg-users < gnupg-users@gnupg.org wrote: > On Tue, Dec 11, 2018

Re: GPG on Android

for years I've been using openkeychain and keeping a signing and encryption subkey on an nfc yubikey. when I went to use encrypted email on the phone (which is basically only from Facebook) I tap the key to the back of the phone. if I want to read the same email on my laptop I plug out in there.

Re: Prefer a currently available signing subkey?

I had exactly the same problem, and there is an open bug about this (wanna fix it?) I forgot the number. I tried to solve it first by creating three copies of the master key. One that knew about both signing keys, and one independent copy that knew about each of the signing keys. So I could

Re: Is NFC Appropriate?

So you weren't alike if you can do this (yes it works) rather you where asking if you should ;-) A hash of The message passes through near field magnetic induction which does emit radio waves. Then a response is sent back containing the description key for that message. Perhaps someone here

Yes it works great, I do this with k9+openkeychain on Android Den tor. 9. feb. 2017 09.27 skrev Adam Sherman : > Good Morning, > > As a very happy Yubikey 4[2] user, where my latop does not contain any > secret keys, I would now like to enjoy secure email on my smart phone > and

Re: Primary and Signing Key on Different Smart Cards

I have a similar setup and have been doing it successfully. I have two yubikey neos with signing keys. I found that because of bugs in gpg 2.1 I had to put the same signing key onto both neos. Once I did that it worked smoothly. It would be preferable to use different keys and I'll do that if

Re: Perform only asymmetric encryption/decryption

I'm not sure I totally understand your requiremens, though if you are looking to run RSA encryption on strings and are not using any of the authentication parts of gpg, then openssl is the way to go. I suspect it's not possible with gpg's provided interface. If using pgp is really more convenient

Re: Using gpg for ssh access

When setting this up I missed the step of explicitly enabling ssh agent mode in gpg agent so it would listen for connections from ssh (and pretend to be the ssh agent) then I had to set the environment variable for the ssh socket to the gpg agent socket. After a short while this grew tedious and I

Re: Getting rid of key stub when moving key to new smart card?

I am having the same problem. The only way to make it see the key on the new card that I have come across is to completely remove the entire .gnupg directory and not restore any of it, then import the public key and only then run gpg --card-status. If I don't completely wipe everything out
