I'm trying to use PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) on a HP11.0 machine. I tried generating my own public/private key pair:
#pgp -kg
(- Selected a 512 bits as the RSA key size.
- For public key, I used by username:
cjl04
-entered a "test" as my passphrase )
It produced the following error:
Can't create output file '/.pgp/secring.pgp'
Can't create output file '/.pgp/pubring.pgp'
Could someone help me out on this?
Also, what is meant by the keyring and keyfile i.e as in the phrase "To add a key file's contents to your public or secret key ring"?
The above phrase is from the pgp man page.
pgp -ka keyfile [keyring]
Also, how can I tell what is the keyring, and how it is generated?
Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: UNIX PGP encryption
keyring. = Key file
Public. Open access
Secret = Personal
