Gpg Generate Key In Batch Mode
Encryption/decryption commands
Jun 28, 2019 gpg -full-generate-key. Running the above command will take you through several questions. Two of them will involve choosing userid and passphrase. Keep them safe. Export Public Key. Gpg -export -a userid public.key. Export Private Key. Gpg -pinentry-mode=loopback -batch -passphrase secret-export-secret-keys userid private.key. GnuPG uses a somewhat more sophisticated scheme in which a user has a primary keypair and then zero or more additional subordinate keypairs. The primary and subordinate keypairs are bundled to facilitate key management and the bundle can often be considered simply as one keypair.
Gpg Generate Key In Batch Mode Software
- To encrypt a plaintext file with the recipient's public key:
- To sign a plaintext file with your secret key:
- To sign a plaintext file with your secret key and have the outputreadable to people without running GPG first:
- To sign a plaintext file with your secret key, and then encrypt itwith the recipient's public key:
- To decrypt an encrypted file, or to check the signature integrityof a signed file:
- Generate a new key pair. This command is normally only used interactive. There is an experimental feature which allows to create keys in batch mode. See the file doc/DETAILS in the source distribution on how to use this.-edit-key name. Present a menu which enables you to do all key.

- To extract (copy) a key from your public or secret key ring:
or
- To view the contents of your public key ring:

Here's a page that describes the options for the gen-key script: http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg-devel/Unattended-GPG-key-generation.html |

Originally I had a couple extra steps to use rng-tools to seed entropy from /dev/urandom. Apparently this is a bad idea because it will just feed bytes regardless of whether there's enough entropy. Here's where I got the original idea, and the subsequent discussion of why it's bad. For new machines, we should generate the keys on our laptops where there's much more entropy to draw from, and then transfer them to the new server, just like we're currently doing with the encrypted data bag secret. |
