If that is your actual commandline "gpg - --import" then I think gpg will attempt to read from stdin. You can read about gpg here: http://linsec.ca/bin/view/Main/GnuPG or here: http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/docs/gpg.php Lots of good info on GPG there. -- MandrakeSoft Security; http://www.mandrakesecure.net/ Online Security Resource Book; http://linsec.ca/ "lynx -source http://linsec.ca/vdanen.asc | gpg --import" {FE6F2AFD : 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD}
