Hi,
I've been quickly testing gpg 0.9.10 interoperability with pgp 6.02. Could I
expect this to work with the right set-up?
gpg seems to deal with PGP 6.02 created files just fine so far, but going the
otherway causes problems.
I currently have the following options file:
cipher-algo CAST5
digest-algo MD5
s2k-cipher-algo CAST5
s2k-digest-algo MD5
s2k-mode 0
compress-algo 1
I then perform:
"gpg --options myoptionsfile -c testfile"
with a passphrase of "test".
When I use PGP 6.02 to decrypt the file, it insists on a bad passphrase. The
above options create a packet list that matches as closely as possible that of
a similarly created file from PGP 6.02.
Regards,
Dave
