Hi, everybody! Recently, I've become a bit paranoid and started looking into methods of authenticating email. I've looked at PGP and GnuPG, and I *think* I understand the procedure, if not the process itself. At any rate, I have a PGP keypair (generated from the free Windows client), and I have generated a GPG keypair, which is now resident on my Linux machine. The part that puzzles me about the GPG key is now that I have it, I don't know what to do with it :?. I'm really interested in putting a copy on a public server (not entirely unlike what PGP/Windows did *for* me), and putting a fingerprint-style line in my .signature file. Can anyone point me to a decent `NOWTO' concerning this procedure? :} -- -=|JP|=- Jon Pennington | Atipa Linux Solutions -o) jpennington@atipa.com | http://www.atipa.com /\\ Kansas City, MO, USA | 816-241-2641 x121 _\_V -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

Your off to a good start by using mutt!
I'm really interested in putting a copy on a public server (not entirely unlike what PGP/Windows did *for* me)
First get a list of keyservers: host -l pgp.net | grep wwwkeys Next, gpg --keyserver <keyserver> --send-keys <name> Also, to get a key from a keyserver: gpg --keyserver <keyserver> --recv-keys 5D2F850B (5D2F850B is just an example, it probably doesn't exist.)
[I want to] a fingerprint-style line in my .signature file.
gpg --fingerprint
Can anyone point me to a decent `NOWTO' concerning this procedure? :}
The manpage is short and concise... I'd give it a look.

You were meant to... it seems like your 'host' command has gone walkabout - do you have bind installed? In my 6.1, host is to be found in package: bind-4.9.7-59 You know what to do...

I'm seeing the error: kernel: eth0: Transmit error, Tx status register 82. in /var/log/messages. Anyone know what this is, and why, and if it's something to worry about?

Nope. Didn't unplug. The hub is sitting on top of the computer, and I have the cable in a coil to keep it off the floor. Maybe that could cause a problem? It's a 3Com 3c905C-TX card connected to a Linksys hub. Maybe I'm finding out why that linksys hub + 2 linksys cards was only $100USD??? What tools do I have available to debug this type of problem?

Well, I just had that same card just up and die on me lastnight for no reason. I would suggest entertaining the idea that the card may be having issues. just my 0.022 On Wed, 19 Apr 2000, Bill Moseley wrote:
