gpg on cron task

[enediel gonzalez]

Thanks Samuel for the answer

as you can see on the line I execute, I include the full paths necessary for 
the execution

regarding permissions, this task is a root's task, so, the referenced key ID 
in included within the trusted chain for root.


$str_execute = "cd /tmp/backup && /bin/echo apassword | /usr/bin/gpg -se 
--passphrase-fd 0 -r enediel at hotmail.com /
tmp/backup/$filename";
exec($str_execute);
