Title: encryption Post by: kerstone on March 20, 2013, 10:41:27 PM Srry guys, but i need to ask this. How the hell do I use gpg4win to encrypt pms?
I understand the email and file process...just not this. or point me to a tut or something. For encrypting/decrypting pms. thnx.

Start from http://www.gpg4win.org/doc/en/gpg4win-compendium_11.html - there are a few pages before with lots of words that don't say very much.
Title: Re: encryption Post by: kerstone on March 21, 2013, 01:24:20 AM yeah, i read the whole thing twice, and followed along. Its a bit old. For the email, I had to figure out a workaround because it only tells you how to use the outlook browser plug. I understand the concepts, can encrypt/decrypt email and files, just don't get the pm thing. I tried encrypting a notepad sketch then copy paste into dialog, but it doesnt work. Ill figure it out, I just get frustrated and ask for help too soon sometimes!
cant find a gmail/firefox plug either, the firegpg or whatever is out of production. Didn't spend too much time searching though...

The encrypted stuff will be on your clipboard.
Kleopatra sucks, though, so I often use the command-line. From the command-line, run something like gpg --encrypt --armor -r "theymos". Then enter your message and type Ctrl-Z when you're done.

thanx! |
