[SOLVED] gpg-agent and the magical passphrase
Hey fellas,
I encountered a strange problem. I just copied my gpg and my ssh keys to my laptop
to use them with gpg-agent.
So I setup gpg-agent as described in the wiki, did a ssh-add, entered my ssh-key and
specified a new passphrase (test). "ssh-add -l" looked good, but ...
After that I tried to ssh to some of my server, gpg-agent asked for the passphrase, but it seemed i misstyped "test" .... misstyped it again .... and so on, i tired every fuckin password i got, readded the key etc.
But nothin helped, even the debug-level guru wasnt helpful.
What could be wrong?
Best regards,
b52

Re: [SOLVED] gpg-agent and the magical passphrase
If got the same Problem.
Tried a lot but nothing worked it out.
ssh-add ask for passphrase of Key and after this for passphrase for the Keyring through my pinetry program.
But after re-entering the passphrase it won't work.
Seems to be a bug !?
(PS: I am using Gentoo)

Re: [SOLVED] gpg-agent and the magical passphrase
I am using the SSH agent emulation without any problems, as I explained here: Application of the GPG Passphrase Agent
You need to install an RTFM interface.

Re: [SOLVED] gpg-agent and the magical passphrase
Thant`s the way I did it!
The agent is running and is able to communicate with ssh but never then less I can`t set a passphrase to decrypt my key. (Or better, I can set a passphrase but it doesn`t work)...

Re: [SOLVED] gpg-agent and the magical passphrase
I filed a bug report for that and it turned out that the new version 2.0.14 had a bug:

Re: [SOLVED] gpg-agent and the magical passphrase
Hello,
I am experiencing this problem again. With version 2.0.16. Anyone else has problems adding new keys to the agent?
