Hello, I have been trying to find some basic help online to help me sort out some issues I am having, and I am rather desperate and wanted to see if someone would be able to assist me. I recently took a technical job at a public radio station and one of our sources of income is donations through our web site. These donations are sent by e-mail, encrypted using GPG, and then decrypted in our Donor Relations Department, using GPGrelay. The problem is that only two PCs have GPGrelay installed and they are going to be replaced next week with new PCs. I have only dabbled with GPG briefly in the past, and have been trying to learn all I can the past week, but I need some assistance. I need to install GPGrelay on the new PCs and get it configured to decrypt the incoming e-mail. I have access to all of the servers and computers, but do not yet know enough about GPG to get the key from our server, so that I can give it to GPGrelay to properly decrypt the e-mail. I have installed a "test system" at home and have managed to create a key pair, encrypt a test ASCII document, and then e-mail the document to myself. The problem then becomes two-fold. GPGrelay sees my already-existing key pair, which is not how the real situation would be, because the encryption is done on our server and the e-mail is received on a different computer, which is different from my setup at home, which just uses one computer for it all. I guess the hardest part for me is getting the keys from the server to the decrypting workstation. The next part is that even with the single-computer test at home, I'm receiving the e-mail, but it is not decrypted, with the message that GPGrelay does not have the secret key to decrypt it. So I guess that if someone could help me out, I would really appreciate it. I'm trying to learn as fast as I can be reading everything I can find, but I'm so distracted at work with so many other things going on, and at home my two daughters -- 16 months and 7 months -- are almost as much of a distraction. Couple this with our fall fundraising campaign kicking off next Friday, and you can see the situation I am in. I would appreciate any help! Thanks in advance. Dennis Bilyk |
