Hi all, I am new to this list and have a question I couldn't find answered either in the docs or in the FAQ.
I just started using a smart card with GPG namely the nitro key www.nitrokey.com . It behaves like a smart card so this shouldcorrespond to any GPG card as well. I already had a key pair with some signatures so I decided to add a card sub key to my main key as explained in the manual. I did this by Gpg --edit-key b5f8d556 (ny main key ID) Addcardkey I created all three kinds of keys and they show up in the main key. I now can export the secret sub keys with Gpg --export-secret-subkeys Or one by one specifying the single key IDS. AFAIK the trick to smart cards ist hat the keys are not exportable from them. So while exporting the keys to a backup was helpful to me I'd like to know how to keep them only on the card and make them no longer exportable. AFAIK the exports contain a valid looking key block. Keytocard Resulted in the message that the keys are already on the card (which is OK) but still they can be exported. So how to proceed? Thanks in advance Heiko Machen Sie mit und teilen Sie Ihr Wissen auf www.besonderetipps.de Bitte schützen Sie meine und Ihre privatsphäre und verwenden Sie PGP. pub 2048R/B5F8D556 2014-08-06 Schl.-Fingerabdruck = 758D DA37 1DA1 1E2F 7CDD 60A2 F3F4 1E8D B5F8 D556 uid [ uneing.] Heiko Folkerts <[email protected]> uid [ uneing.] Heiko Folkerts <[email protected]> uid [ uneing.] Heiko Folkerts <[email protected]> sub 4096g/BC0D1006 2015-08-27 [verfllt: 2016-08-26] _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
