gpg doubts
Hello,
I have used gpg as per your reply..It is working perfectly fine.I am able to encrypt and decrypt files.For directories,I had to convert them into ".tar" format and then use this gpg.Is this the only solution or is there any other command which can encrypt both files and directories ?
I did go through the man page of "gpg".Can you please tell me what other options of gpg can be used generally.....
