Key Import

[chris@inferno.nadir.org]

Hello Graham

to import your trust-database, it must be exported first to have it 
in the right form. like this:
gpg --export-ownertrust > trust.txt 	(on your windows machine)
then you can import that file on your linuxbox with
gpg --import-ownertrust trust.txt

To be able to import a secret key you have to give the
--allow-secret-key-import  option. Like this:
gpg --import --allow-secret-key-import secring.gpg

But all this can be found in the manpage ( man gpg)
 
 Greetings Christoph
