  • 1.  PGP Command Line Import

    Posted Mar 05, 2012 12:22 PM

    I'm currently using PGP Desktop Security  6.5.8  - our company recently purchased PGP Command Line and installed it on a server.  I need to start using the PGP Command Line and I was wondering how I import my keyrings I use currently (6.5.8) into the new Command Line.  Your help would be appreciated.

    Please read below:

     The usage format is:
    pgp --import <input> [<input2> ...] [options]
    Where:
    <input> is the filename of the key being imported. Multiple keys can also be
    imported by listing them, separated by a space.
    [options] modify the behavior of the command. Options are:
    --import-format specifies the import format for the current operation. See --
    import-format for more information.
    --manual-import-keys changes the behavior of PGP Command Line when keys
    are found during import operations. The default is all.
    --manual-import-key-pairs changes the behavior of PGP

     

    Please read guide for more information:

    So if I have two keypairs , let's say eds1.asc and eds2.asc, and the public keys our vendors have sent to us: ven1.asc, ven2.asc etc.  To import these keys i would use the following code?

    pgp --import eds1.asc eds2.asc ven1.asc ven2.asc

    These keys would then be imported?

    Thank you!
