I'm trying to use the same key at home/work/laptop using Linux, WIn XP, and Win 2K.
I'm trying to export my private key and public key in linux to a text file so i can import it to use in windows. (it seems easier to do it this way than to import a private key into gpg.)
this is the command I'm using

gpg -v -o test.txt --export-secret-keys seth@hollen.org
but the text file it outputs is always encrytped.. how can I make a plain text file to iport in windows?

I'm open to other suggestions as well!!😀
 
It's not too tricky to import the key into your linux keyring either -- you just need to use the "--allow-secret-key-import" option. Whichever works for you.

Thanks that let me export them.

and it gives me another question. why do I have 3 keys? Private-- public-- and a sub key to my private one?

Also how would I import a nother set of keys? (my windows ones made using PGP) into my linux box to use as my primary?
Thanks!
