Hello dear experts

how to import a key of a friend ... into KGpg

 

is this possible with

gpg -a --import

i guess that this is much more apropiate than this code
 

 gpg -a -i

btw - or are there options to import directly without any comand line

 

can i import it directly with kgpg !?

[martin@martin-pc Downloads]$ gpg -a --import encrypted1.asc
gpg: Keine gültigen OpenPGP-Daten gefunden.

hello dear all

if i try to import the key with  KGpg - the KDE client - wiht the option - take the text from editor .. then i get back the warning

Text in editor is no key but a crypted text - should i treat the text and try to decypher it?


well that said - my friend sent me a crypted file for a public key  - well this seems not to be necessary -

what to do now

[martin@martin-pc Downloads]$ gpg -d encrypted1.asc
gpg: verschlüsselt mit ELG Schlüssel, ID 347E856F4F5D2DC6
gpg: verschlüsselt mit ELG Schlüssel, ID 6C37EEFDAB40A2B8
gpg: verschlüsselt mit RSA Schlüssel, ID CEF757D0F5BE77E5
gpg: Entschlüsselung fehlgeschlagen: Kein geheimer Schlüssel
[martin@martin-pc Downloads]$ ^Mgpg -d encrypted2.asc
bash: $'\rgpg': Kommando nicht gefunden.
[martin@martin-pc Downloads]$
[martin@martin-pc Downloads]$ gpg -d encrypted2.asc
gpg: verschlüsselt mit ELG Schlüssel, ID 347E856F4F5D2DC6
gpg: verschlüsselt mit ELG Schlüssel, ID 6C37EEFDAB40A2B8
gpg: verschlüsselt mit RSA Schlüssel, ID CEF757D0F5BE77E5
gpg: Entschlüsselung fehlgeschlagen: Kein geheimer Schlüssel

well the trial to decypher seems to fail - and i guess the best is to ask my friend how he encrypted the file.
