Hey guys,
Having a little gpg issue I was wondering if someone could help me with.
A friend of mine sent me an encrypted message. So I searched online and found a a set of keys that correspond with his email address. And imported them. But when I go to decrypt the message, this is what I get:
[root@ops:~] #gpg --decrypt roger-message gpg: encrypted with 2048-bit RSA key, ID 9617EA5C, created 2014-10-01 "Roger Sherman rsherman@viddler.com" *gpg: encrypted with RSA key, ID 9A41C766* *gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available*
Here's a listing of keys that shows his key imported:
[root@ops:~] #gpg --list-keys /root/.gnupg/pubring.gpg ------------------------ pub 1024D/F186197B 2010-11-30 uid Tim Dunphy bluethundr@gmail.com sub 2048g/B712B288 2010-11-30 Tim Dunphy bluethundr@gmail.com
*pub 2048R/9E0AD649 2014-10-01 [expires: 2016-10-01]* *uid Roger Sherman <rsherman@viddler.com rsherman@viddler.com>* *sub 2048R/9617EA5C 2014-10-01 [expires: 2016-10-01]*
So maybe I just didn't import the right key? Or do you think the message wasn't sent correctly? Who's the dummy here? Me or him? :)
Thanks Tim
