Environment: HP laptop with Windows XP SP2 I had created some encrypted files using GnuPG (gpg) for Windows. Yesterday, my hard disk failed so I had reimage the hard disk. I have now reinstalled gpg and regenerated my keys using the same passphrase as earlier. But, I am now unable to decrypt the files. I get the following error: ...
Right now, we're using PGP command line 9.0. Does anybody know if GnuPG will work? It'd be a lot cheaper. ...
I have a large set of files, some of which contain special characters in the filename (e.g. ä,ö,%, and others). I'd like a script file to iterate over these files and rename them removing the special characters. I don't really mind what it does, but it could replace them with underscores for example e.g. Störung%20.doc would be renamed ...
A Practical Introduction to GNU Privacy Guard in Windows recommends DSA and ElGamal, but I would like to know if RSA is good enough to use these days, and if so, what minimum key size should I use? Is it ok to use SHA-256 for signing (for compatibility with e-mail clients)? Also, beside e-ignite: Key Types, can you point to other source...
Hi! Trying to use GnuPG with Delphi (Win32). I need to sign some file with such console command: "C:\Program Files\GNU\GnuPG\gpg.exe" -a -u Alex --passphrase secretpassword --yes --clearsign -o C:\Result.asc C:\InputFile.txt First I created normal VCL Forms App and used CreateProcess function, everything was OK, but when I transfer...
I created a nice long passphrase, used it a few times, then forgot it ;) The twist is, I know the general theme and probably almost all of the characters. The perfectionist in me doesn't want to revoke the key or anything like that (and I think I need the passphrase to revoke it anyway, right?). I feel I should be able to have a good go ...
I'm making a program in Python to be distributed to windows users via an installer. The program needs to be able to download a file every day encrypted with the user's public key and then decrypt it. So I need to find a Python library that will let me generate public and private PGP keys, and also decrypt files encrypted with the publi...
I need a client-server encryption solution for web transfer, (i.e. signed and encrypted client-side, and verified and decrypted server-side). I am using HTTP, but SSL is not available due to shared hosting restrictions (my server is a shared host environment). Looking into alternative solutions, I have decided on OpenPGP using GnuPG. On...
Hi. I use GnuPG and C# to encrypt files with imported public keys. But when I try to make encryption, GnuPG encrypt file with public key of main user. I'm sure that I pass right recipient. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. ...
Hiya, I'm trying to use GNUPG and Crypt_GPG to encrypt data ready to be sent across email to a client server but i'm having problems setting it up.

I was wondering if there's any django module, or in such case any python module, that will allow me to create my own application to manage the creation, administration, etc of GnuPG keys, as well as the ability to sign and encrypt documents through this application? If there's no such module, how can I do that? Thank you. ...
I would like to be able to encrypt files on disk and/or data in memory using GnuPG from a Java application. If possible I'd like to avoid having to make system calls out to the GPG command line tools. Is there a recommended library, or can you recommend the best approach to GPG encrypting from Java (or Scala)? I'm developing and inten...
I want to use GnuPG (http://www.gnupg.org/), the open source software that is a full replacement for PGP. The software looks great though I have never used it before. I will be using the software to encrypt files to transfer via the web, I am not using the software for emails. I have a few questions: 1) What are recommended GUI's av...
Need to use PGP/GnuPG to encrypt.can suggest what the Python packages to use that. for PGP encryption i.e. on the other side is PGP used to decrypt. ...
Hi, I'm using GNUPG to encrypt my ascii files. I learnt to generate a key, also how to use the it to encrypt and decrypt a file. There are two ways I used: gpg -d foo.txt.gpg & gpg --output foo.txt --decrypt foo.txt.gpg I realized the first method will display the decrypted file on the screen, for example when I executed ...
Hi, I use PyMe to sign and verify messages. I have a problem setting a pass-phrase callback that will return a password for the private signature key whenever needed for signing. My code looks like this: def passphrase_callback(hint='', desc='', prev_bad=''): return 'password' class CryptoEngine: def init(self, user_id, passph...
I have a concatenated string and I want to pass it as query string. For security, I want to encrypt the concatenated string using gpg private key that resides in the same folder where this .php file resides on the remote server. I want to know whether it is safe to keep the public and private keys on the remote server and use it for enc...
