Hi Barry, I installed pgp6.5.8, but I'm still having problems. It installed okay enough: ~/.pgp $ ls PGPMacBinaryMappings.txt pubring.pkr PGPgroup.pgr randseed.rnd PGPsdkPreferences secring-bak-1.skr pgp.cfg secring-bak-2.skr pubring-bak-1.pkr secring.skr pubring-bak-2.pkr ~/.pgp $ I generated my pub/sec keys okay, configured Evo accordingly, but I keep getting the same error message after entering my passphrase: Error: no secret key found signature error Dude what am I doing wrong here. I've read through the documentation (PGP Command Line Guide) three times now, but can't seem to get anywhere with this. I even restarted Evo in case it might help, but nothing. I've copied this to freebsd-questions just in case someone else might have any ideas. Uname info: ~ $ uname -a FreeBSD <snip> 4.5-STABLE FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE #1: Tue May 7 00:13:10 BST 2002 <snip>:/usr/src/sys/compile/<snip> i386 ~ $ I'll keep trying though.
