For companies it is different, it is useful to know that the email/web site etc that purports to be from example.com is actually from the company Example Ltd. For individuals, it is much more useful to treat the certificate/gpg key as identity so that it can be said (as long as the sender is careful with not allowing others access to the private key) that the email signed by John Doe's key/certificate is from the same person calling himself John Doe that you have previously received email. ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

Maybe, but not significantly. WoT gives you more options about how to determine trust levels. This, to me, is significant. There is nothing that can prove who you say you are.

Is there something I can add to ggp.conf? Or is there an environment variable I can set? Matt, First, take a look at my wiki, it describes how I install GnuGP and moved the files to where I think they should belong... http://walters-way.com/doku.php/wamp:security:gpg Second, it seems that my description is a bit old since a non-installer ZIP is no longer offer. I hope my method of moving the keys still works, but... Gnu Gurus at large, I would love to have a non-installer ZIP version available again. I don't like installers. I don't know where files are being put. I don't know what keys are being created. Take a look at my install method. (Above URL) My methodology has a linux-type setup on my windows. Files live where they are supposed to live (as if it was a linux box). Yes, I know, if you want linux Walter, why not just use linux . Long story. But that doesn't change the fact that too many Gnu apps developers for Windows think they have to change the way the Gnu app works (or at least where the files reside) because they are on Windows. Registry keys are not mandatory! You can develop an app without them, for the most part. I don't have a single file in my Windows System directory. I have only 4 or 5 registry keys (and 2 of them are for GnuGP!). When my Windows machine needs to be rebuilt (and as you know, Windows does far too often!) I don't have to spend days rebuilding my linux side. All my linux apps are on their own volume, so they are not effected when I wipe C: drive. Then all I do is re-enter the ENV VARS (and the 4 or 5 keys) and I'm back in business. 10 minutes and I done! And BTW: GnuGP and the USERS directory path directive in Apache are the only two items that I *have* to use a volume letter. I don't know if the left click and encrpyt feature (I like that one!) can be moved from the registry, but I do know that the KEYS location can be removed from the registry. If GnuGP used the HOME ENV VAR (or at least looked for it) than that key could be removed. Hope someone understands all this.

State provided ID cards only prove that you were able to convince the system that you have a specific name. Let me know if you feel differently. Regards Hardeep Well, I feel different... soon after I was born, a nurse put ink on my foot, and made a footprint. That was archived, with my name, and my parents names. Latter, when I was about 8 years old, I got my ID card, and a ID code was assigned to me (now they are making those ID codes when a baby is born), and they took all my fingerprints (both hands). I admit they didn't check if my feet was the same as in my birth certificate, but if somebody says she is my real mother, it can be verified (without DNA test). So I feel here, in Chile, state provided ID cards are reasonably safe. Or at least, if there is any claim of wrong identity, it can be tracked to the moment a new born is registered in the system. Sure, maybe there can be a mistake in the hospital, and 2 babies can be exchanged... but that is one of these what if...? that we shouldn't be worried about, unless something forces us to consider that case. My point is, when I had the age to be able to think I am going to fake my identity, it was already too late to be able to fake the system. All I can do is forge my ID card, and that is a complex thing to do, they have many security measures.
