Gpg ?

antken · 08-31-2002, 04:26 PM

hello,

i want to use GPG to send encrypted details via email from me to some one else.

so far i have fugured out how to create my key thing ( gpg --gen-key )
and export my key to a file to import into another system ( gpg --export -a > file.key ( for example ) )

now how would i go about encrypting some text at my end and decryping my text at the other end?

are there any how-to's floating about that explain how to do this?

There's a small HOWTO, maybe it'll be useful for you:

The easiest thing would be to use the latest version of KMAIL, if you have kde 3 installed. It fully supports GPG and PGP, withi nice gui to boot.
