I'm trying to set up GnuPG on my server here. It's a WinXP Pro system.  I
want to be able to use dos style bats to encrypt files for certain users.
However, I can't get GnuPG to find the default options or gpg.conf file
I've been reading the docs and have written both hoping it would work.  The
two files are exactly alike.  
The path to GnuPG is c:\Program Files\Windows Privacy Tools\GnuPG   the
options and gpg.conf files are there.  Am I missing a system variable?  
I put GNUPGHOME=c:\Program Files\Windows Privacy Tools\GnuPG and have
c:\Program Files\Windows Privacy Tools\GnuPG as part of the PATH. 

I can encrypt files from the C:\ prompt using the proper keys, just not with
the options I want.
