Alphax said the following on 10/04/05 12:04: >>>a time ago I created a "Sign Only" DSA Key with an ElGamal Encrypt >>>Subkey. Now I noticed that it is not possible to encrypt a message with >>>PGP to this Public Key because PGP only sees the "sign only" primary Key >>>and not the encrypting subkey.
> Must be a very old version of PGP... Maybe You missunderstand my procederes: $ gpg --gen-key Please select what kind of key you want: (1) DSA and ElGamal (default) (2) DSA (sign only) (4) RSA (sign only) Here I selected "2". After the key creation I did a: Command> addkey Please select what kind of key you want: (2) DSA (sign only) (3) ElGamal (encrypt only) (4) RSA (sign only) (5) RSA (encrypt only) Here I selected "3". This key does not work with PGP5 for encryption. Only for signing.
