Gnupg & PGP6.5.1i - 2nd

Hash: SHA1

I just posted this on Friday, again. Can we make this an FAQ? 

gpg --s2k-cipher-algo=CAST5 --s2k-digest-algo=SHA1 --compress-algo=1
- --edit-key keyid

where keyid is your keyid. Remove the password, then do:

gpg --export-secret-key --no-comment -a keyid >keyid_secert.asc

Then copy it to the windows machine, add it, restore the passphrases (on
both).

gpg --edit-key keyid
 > passwd
 > save


BTW, is there anything wrong with using CAST5 as the default s2k in
GnuPG? Please... :)
