GPG problem Urgent please

[Steve Butler]

Scott,

Are you running on a Linux/Unix box?  If so, then I have scripts in use here
to automatically decrypt incoming data files.  In fact, the script will run
on a Linux box inside the firewall.  It will periodically pull files in from
the FTP server sitting in the DMZ and then decrypt them once the files are
inside the firewall.

If this is your situation, let me know.

Because many of us out here are using GPG as a poor-man's secure FTP. I use
it because my company won't pay $60 to a 'non-preffered' vendor for the S/W,
and says $2000 from the "preferred" vendor is too expensive.

I do I have it working for the OUTGOING side of the transaction, but not for
the incoming.
