I thought about that option, but I didn't know how to get the "long ID". Thanks! But I tried it now and it STILL tries to write to trustdb :-( Here's my command line: % su - nobody % gpg -ea -z9 -r'WebSiteName' --always-trust --lock-never --batch --no-random-seed-file --trusted-key=705D5C462FC49FE7 gpg: Warning: using insecure memory! gpg: fatal: /work/who/web/.gpg/trustdb.gpg: can't open: Permission denied % ls -al /work/who/web/.gpg total 28 drwxr-xr-x 2 trevor trevor 4096 Mar 28 14:51 . drwxrwxrwx 15 trevor trevor 8192 Mar 27 23:01 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 trevor trevor 869 Mar 27 13:37 pubring.gpg -rw-r--r-- 1 trevor trevor 0 Mar 27 13:35 pubring.gpg~ -rw-r--r-- 1 trevor trevor 600 Mar 27 13:37 random_seed -rw-r--r-- 1 trevor trevor 1091 Mar 27 13:37 secring.gpg -rw-r--r-- 1 trevor trevor 2560 Mar 27 14:06 trustdb.gpg Obviously everything works peachy if I execute this as trevor. But my web server will eventually run this as apache:apache, so it has to work for other (non)users. Please help!
