Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers [GPG] System-wide public key? Post 302392732 by Totengraber on Friday 5th of February 2010 09:09:41 AM

I apologize for being a bit dense, but I don't understand how this would work. Do you maybe have a procedure to pull off the latter? I don't think the symmetric mode will do what we need.

One thing I neglected to mention is that we do have the remote server's public key. We are expected to send them a "trusted and signed" public key back to them.

Thanks much!!
