GPG (and PGP) allow you to sign a file that can be verified by a
recipient as having been signed by you.

See http://www.math.niu.edu/help/unix/gnupg.html

For a recipient to be able to verify that the signed document
originated from the supposed sender, they need access to the sender's
public key. In a LAN environment, you can set up a keyserver to which
everyone has sent their public key. Be warned that this is a
complicated thing to do. Alternatively, you could just use a public
GPG keyserver.
