Apr 04, 2017 Generating a new keypair. To encrypt your communication, the first thing to do is to create a new keypair. GPG is able to create several types of keypairs, but a primary key must be capable of making signatures.

- Jul 12, 2019 To share your key as a file, we need to export it from the gpg local key store. To do this, we’ll use the -export option, which must be followed by the email address that you used to generate the key. The -output option must be followed by the name fo the file you wish to have the key exported into. The -armor option tells gpg to generate.
- Apr 05, 2020 To find your GPG key ID click on the My Personal Keys tab and look in the Key ID column next to the newly created key. In most cases, if you are asked for the key ID, you should prepend '0x' to the key ID, as in '0x6789ABCD'. Now you should make a backup of your private key. Creating GPG Keys Using the KDE Desktop.

Here's a page that describes the options for the gen-key script: http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg-devel/Unattended-GPG-key-generation.html |

Originally I had a couple extra steps to use rng-tools to seed entropy from /dev/urandom. Apparently this is a bad idea because it will just feed bytes regardless of whether there's enough entropy. Here's where I got the original idea, and the subsequent discussion of why it's bad. For new machines, we should generate the keys on our laptops where there's much more entropy to draw from, and then transfer them to the new server, just like we're currently doing with the encrypted data bag secret. |

I configured libvirt tu use /dev/urandom of the host: https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsRng That way keys generated within the VM should be ok. |
