<![CDATA[Glump.net]]> Commentics Juan Carlos Rojas Hello, cant you tell me how cant I encrypt a File using TDES?
I tried with the "gpg --recipient "Darth Vader" --output EncryptedFile.gpg --encrypt localhost.2018-03-19.log" and It worked but I don't know under which algorithm is this encrypted file generated
Thanks

error is: gpg: decryption failed: no secret key

i did all you say, import that key .. what I miss?

How to solve this?

I am using this command to decrypt a file.
gpg --batch --yes --passphrase "passphrase" --output J:\PGP\tsc.pgp

It's resulting to the following error:
gpg: Fatal: zlib inflate problem: invalid distance too far back

Thanks in advance.

2. Different key. The key I used to make that signature in the article text is old and lost. I need to update the article.

1. There's a JPEG (~5.7 KB) appended to your public key. Can you explain why and for what purpose it's there.

2. I was able to import your public key (confirmed via --list-keys) and assigned the ultimate trust level, but when I attempt to verify your sample signature it comes back:

"gpg: Signature made 03/23/03 23:31:40 Eastern Daylight Time using DSA key ID A3CA0378
gpg: Can't check signature: No public key"

Is this a problem on my end, or is it because the key doesn't match the signature?

When i open gpg.exe and type in; import mykey.txt or import "mykey.txt" or --import "mykey.txt" or --import mykey.txt . All it does is drop down to the next line.

Thank you for your help

Piping the passphrase to decrypt didnt work for me but i found an alternative:

gpg --batch --yes --passphrase Password123 --decrypt-files *.pgp

Some practical suggestions: Read blogs by security experts like Bruce Schneier and Brian Krebs, and the people they link to; learn the lingo and the culture of information security. Complain, loudly, to your representatives. Learn about various modes of encryption and free open source privacy tools that implement them such as Tor and Freenet. Teach your friends how to use them so that you can socialize with friends privately. And lastly if you want guaranteed foolproof privacy, then get your affairs in order, settle your debts, disappear into the wilderness without a phone, and become a hermit.
