Theo, Thanks. No, I didn't import revoke.asc, and your suggestion worked. Next step is to figure out encryption.

OK, I guess that older key is really mine. I was able to change the password, but I'm still not sure about how to handle this. If I do use this older key, how do I change the email address on it? Is adduser the correct command for this? Would it make more sense to revoke that one and make a new one?

I got as far as 'Really sign?' and then it didn't like my passphrase. I did gpg --fingerprint It seems that I already have a key that I allegedly made in December 2003. I don't remember doing this, and I don't understand how I could have done it without going through the procedure that we all just used this week. When I do gpg --list-sigs, my new key is listed as revoked. Did I screw up on following the first set of directions? I tried putting the new key ID in the default key line of my options file, and when I try to sign someone's key, I get the message gpg: no default secret key: unusable secret key Any suggestions on what to do?

Re: [Wlug] PGP Keysigning

I got as far as Really sign? And then it asked for my passphrase, but I'm not sure it really knows who I am. It has my rcn address, which is not the one I used to create the key. WTF??? What do I do if my passphrase fails? Why is my middle initial missing? Why is my key ID different from what it was when I created it, and how did I create it in 2003? when I do gpg --fingerprint, I get the key I didn't know about, the one I made this week, and one from somebody I don't know and who doesn't appear in my address book (Vincent Danen). When I do gpg --list-sigs, my new key is listed as revoked. Did I screw up on following the first set of directions? Greg Charles R. Anderson wrote: > To complete the PGP Keysigning process: > > 1.

PGP Keysigning

by Charles R. Anderson

To complete the PGP Keysigning process: 1. Sign All The Verified IDs On The Verified Keys gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys <Key_ID> gpg --sign-key <Key_ID> [ Verify the fingerprint against your sheet. You probably want to select (3) I have done very careful checking in this case, since we met in person and verified physical photo ID's. ] 2. Send The Signed Keys Back Up To The Designated Keyserver gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --send-key <Key_ID> Finally, once everyone has signed everyone else's keys and sent them to the keyserver, you will want to download the signed versions once more from the keyserver. You can do this at any time without fear of overwritting keys--GnuPG will always merge the changes into your local keyring (--recv-keys) or the remote keyserver (--send-keys) as necessary. 3. Download the Signed Keys from The Designated Keyserver gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-key <Key_ID> It is a good idea to periodically re-download keys to receive new signatures, learn of revoked keys, etc. You can tell a signature was added by the output of --recv-keys. You can list key signatures with: gpg --list-sigs [<Key_ID>] where <Key_ID> is optional. You may notice some keys signed by unknown user ids. If you receive those keys from the keyserver(s) you can build your Web Of Trust to include people you don't know. This gets into how much you trust people with whom you have verified keys directly to sign *other* people's keys properly/securely. More on this later....
