I am using gpg 1.0.4 for Windoze NT.
Upon decrypting a file, I receive the following:
"gpg: no secret key for decryption available"
The return code was zero - implying success - and I was able to read the
contents of the file
without any difficulty. Can somebody help me understand what the error
message is trying to tell me???
The sender exported his PGP key to an 'asc' file which I imported with:
gpg --import < hiskey.ascPlease CC me in your reply, TIADaryl KrauterPlease see the context below:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------C:\gnupg>type pasfraze.txt|gpg --options options.txt -o zab.txt
