[ic] Random PGP failures

[NOW Website Coordinator]

I am having problems (I use IC 4.8.6) where sometimes the 
mv_credit_card_info is included with an order, sometimes not.  The error 
log just says:

  [16/November/2002:12:16:43 -0500] store /cgi-bin/store/process.html PGP 
failed with status 0:



which seems to be an unhelpful status code in PGP 6.5.8.   A few times, the 
PGP message was written to pgptemp files and I was able to at least 
retrieve them from there, but the last dropped message was not written to a 
temp file.


I've thought of switching to GPG, but it seems to be a problem for people 
with that program as well -- at least in June, but I can't access the URL 
with some help that people reference:

http://interchange.redhat.com/pipermail/interchange-users/200-March/018636.html

nor can I find it on www.archive.org.

I find in the archives (I can only get the Google ones to work for some 
reason, the Swish ones aren't working) the following thread -- does anyone 
have more info about this -- should I find a traffic setting and set it to 
RPC?:

Just to let every one know, this fix has indeed cured my GPG woes, at least
so far, the site went all weekend without a single one.  Quite an
improvement verses 2-3 everyday.  A few things that I noticed about the new
conf.  IC seems to take twice as much memory as before, the new process's
are around 30-40MB/process, whereas previously they were
~20MB/process.  Also, they seem to place less of a load on the CPU when
they run.
