Our Next PGP/GnuPG Keysigning Party
There are currently no upcoming PGP/GnuPG keysigning parties scheduled.
Script to sign keys
Attached is a bash script
"email-signed-keys"
for signing keys from the most recent BLU keysigning party.
To use the script:
- Download the script:
email-signed-keys
- Rename the file to remove the ".txt" extension:
- mv email-signed-keys.txt email-signed-keys
- Make the file executable:
- chmod +x email-signed-keys
- Run the script to sign the keys:
- ./email-signed-keys keyid ...
For example, let's say you attended the most recent BLU keysigning party,
and at the party you've verified the identities of the people who
own the keys with ids 4A73884C, 3BC1EB90, and C67224EB.
You have two secret keys: your default signing key D5C7B5D9,
and a second secret key 32A492D8.
To sign the three keys using your default signing key,
you can run one of the following commands:
- ./email-signed-keys 4A73884C 3BC1EB90 C67224EB
- ./email-signed-keys --bsmtp 4A73884C 3BC1EB90 C67224EB
- ./email-signed-keys --mailx 4A73884C 3BC1EB90 C67224EB
To sign with your other secret key, 32A492D8,
use the --local-user option:
- ./email-signed-keys --local-user 32A492D8 4A73884C 3BC1EB90 C67224EB
- ./email-signed-keys --local-user 32A492D8 --bsmtp 4A73884C 3BC1EB90 C67224EB
- ./email-signed-keys --local-user 32A492D8 --mailx 4A73884C 3BC1EB90 C67224EB
The option "--bsmtp" outputs a Batch-SMTP shar archive to push
the email messages through "/usr/sbin/sendmail -bs".
The option "--mailx" outputs a shar archive to push
the email messages through "mailx".
If you don't specify one of these, the default is bsmtp.
