-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Thanks Alexander... I'll definitely check them out. But right now I'm curious if you know why gpg is calling your detached sig "BAD"??? Since I don't know how to get pine to feed detached sigs to gnupg, I save them to files... This is what I copied from the konsole screen buffer. (sequence was verify to extract key ID, paste pub key from server to file "sig", import sig, verify for effect, and cat for actual content verification) - - - - - - - - -< s n i p >- - - - - - - - - - jtwdyp -> /home/jtwdyp/com/dnlo > gpg --verify signature.asc txt gpg: Signature made Tue 18 May 2004 04:06:38 PM EDT using DSA key ID ED695653 gpg: Can't check signature: public key not found jtwdyp -> /home/jtwdyp/com/dnlo > vim sig jtwdyp -> /home/jtwdyp/com/dnlo > gpg --import sig gpg: key ED695653: public key "Alexander Dalloz <alexander.dalloz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>" imported gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg: imported: 1 jtwdyp -> /home/jtwdyp/com/dnlo > gpg --verify signature.asc txt gpg: Signature made Tue 18 May 2004 04:06:38 PM EDT using DSA key ID ED695653 gpg: BAD signature from "Alexander Dalloz <alexander.dalloz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>" jtwdyp -> /home/jtwdyp/com/dnlo > cat signature.asc txt - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBAqmzO4ZduiO1pVlMRAqO6AJ45cv9jYwjPgjs+LaroGe0wncrEZQCg38Ey NpgRtCVg8fmyZQgRNixYXBs= =k44X - -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Am Di, den 18.05.2004 schrieb Joe(theWordy)Philbrook um 21:48: > So off I went and made me a new key pair.
