Schadenfreude

I have joined the GSWoT. I am the newest Gossamer Spider Web of Trust Introducer! This is a great honor, and I’d like to thank Kara Denizi for giving me the chance to join.

Above, I’ve posted the current state of the keyring. It also includes an outlier from my personal keyring.

Props to sig2dot for creating that graph. Here’s the commands:

wget -O gswot.keyring "http://biglumber.com/x/web?keyring=5802;download=1"
sudo apt-get install graphviz imagemagick
wget http://www.chaosreigns.com/code/sig2dot/sig2dot.pl
gpg --list-sigs --keyring ./gswot.keyring | perl sig2dot.pl > gswot.dot
neato -Tps gswot.dot > gswot.neato.ps
convert gswot.neato.ps gswot.neato.jpg

Pretty easy – I might have to use this in the future for more graphs and digraphs…

I had a problem today. I wanted to encrypt something with my GPG Key. It was only on my laptop. Here’s what I did:

  gpg --export-secret-keys > gpgkeyfile
  gpg -c gpgkeyfile
  shred -u gpgkeyfile

Then move gpgkeyfile.gpg to another computer. To import them again:

  gpg -d gpgkeyfile.gpg > gpgkeyfile
  gpg --import gpgkeyfile

gpg: key 9140A8C7: secret key imported
gpg: key 9140A8C7: *** 1 new signature
gpg: key 5EF4A221: secret key imported
gpg: key 5EF4A221: public key *** imported
gpg: key 46C171A0: secret key imported
gpg: key 46C171A0: public key *** imported
gpg: Total number processed: 3
gpg:               imported: 2
gpg:         new signatures: 1
gpg:       secret keys read: 3
gpg:   secret keys imported: 3

Woo hoo!
