> Please help. Where to set the public key? In the catalog.cfg??

Here's my IC - gpg Howto:


For IC 4.8.2 my routine is:

Get the store owner to install gnupg or WinPT if they use Windows.
Then get them to create a key pair.

They should then export the public key as an ascii file which you need to
upload to your server.

Import the users public key on the interch users ring using:

su to interchange user and issue:
gpg --import [Filename]

Then edit catalog.cfg and add the encryptor key to the line:

EncryptKey 66A8568A

Also the e-mail address for orders in catalog.cfg should be the same as the
keys e-mail!

Re-start IC and it should do the rest.


You can test the server GnuPG functionality using:

echo test | /usr/bin/gpg --always-trust -e -a -r 'orders@mysite.com'
