GPGrelay help!
Hello,
I have been trying to find some basic help online to help me sort out
some issues I am having, and I am rather desperate and wanted to see
if someone would be able to assist me.
I recently took a technical job at a public radio station and one of
our sources of income is donations through our web site. These
donations are sent by e-mail, encrypted using GPG, and then decrypted
in our Donor Relations Department, using GPGrelay. The problem is
that only two PCs have GPGrelay installed and they are going to be
replaced next week with new PCs. I have only dabbled with GPG
briefly in the past, and have been trying to learn all I can the past
week, but I need some assistance. I need to install GPGrelay on the
new PCs and get it configured to decrypt the incoming e-mail. I have
access to all of the servers and computers, but do not yet know
enough about GPG to get the key from our server, so that I can give
it to GPGrelay to properly decrypt the e-mail.
I have installed a "test system" at home and have managed to create a
key pair, encrypt a test ASCII document, and then e-mail the document
to myself. The problem then becomes two-fold. GPGrelay sees my
already-existing key pair, which is not how the real situation would
be, because the encryption is done on our server and the e-mail is
received on a different computer, which is different from my setup at
home, which just uses one computer for it all. I guess the hardest
part for me is getting the keys from the server to the decrypting
workstation. The next part is that even with the single-computer
test at home, I'm receiving the e-mail, but it is not decrypted, with
the message that GPGrelay does not have the secret key to decrypt it.
