Does anyone have PGP installed on their server? - GoFuckYourself.com

I need to generate a "PGP Public Key" and don't know where to start, or how.

Does it cost money? Is it hard to get this on your server?

Thanks for the help.

"GnuPG is a complete and free replacement for PGP. Because it does not use the patented IDEA algorithm, it can be used without any restrictions"

I think I need to use PGP in order to interact with a PGP server.

Nope, GnuPG is your best bet. It can exchange keys and everything else you want it to do.

So if a company wants to know my "PGP Public Key" and won't let me partner with them until that is provided, I can supply them with a "replacement" and not risk $1,000 app being turned down?
