| Introduction
| |
PGP (Pretty
Good Privacy), originally developed by Phil Zimmerman, is a high
security cryptographic software application for MSDOS, UNIX, VAX/VMS,
and other computers. PGP allows people to exchange files or messages
with privacy, authentication, and convenience.
NOTE: You
must agree to the PGP
5.0 License before installing this version of PGP
on your Virtual Private Servers. This version of PGP is for non-commercial
use only. If you are going to use PGP for commercial use,
you must purchase a license from Network
Associates.
This version of PGP
has also been modified so that it will work in both the virtual
and non-virtual environments. Modifications have also been
made to the PGP executable provided such that it will only
run on our Virtual Private Serverss. Please do not attempt to export
this version off of your Virtual Private Servers. It will not work.
An alternative to
PGP is GnuPG,
which has less restrictive license requirements.

| Installation

Do the following, depending on your Virtual Private Servers O/S.

| Implementation

To generate your own public/secret key pair:
% pgpk -g
Or if you already have
a public/secret key pair, you will want to add your existing keys
to your Virtual Private Servers's key ring:
% pgpk -a [keyfile]
To add PGP to your CGI's
do something like the following:
... | pgpe -r <userid> -a -f | mail -s "Encrypted Mail" ...
Another option is the PGP
version of FormMail, PGP
FormMail.
