sending data to a different platform
We are running AIX 5+ on our Unix box. We are encrypting files with PGP and sending to a user that is using Windows 2000. When he decrypts the file, a file is created but it is still encrypted. PGP support has told me that this is not a PGP problem, rather a problem with UNIX data not being able to be interpreted by Windows. ?? i can send this user a normal file, unencrypted, and he can view it fine. Any ideas?

If you are sending via email, you might have a problem. Try creating and sending a self-extracting PGP file and let us know if that works.
