Some PGP problems
Hi,
I'm trying to decode a PGP file that was created with Ver 2.6.
At this time, I thought that my older ver 2.1c (Running on a
Mac) would at least be able to decrypt something made from
a higher version, running on a PC. Apparently that is not so.
So, the next thing I did, or what any self respecting
Cypherpunk might so, is to go out on the net and look
for a later version to FTP> Well, after discovering
that soda.berkeley.edu don't exist anymore, I eventually
found the ftp site where it lives. ftp.csua.berkeley.edu.
I learn that Mac PGP2.3 exists, but NO version 2.6
exists for the Mac. Is that true? If not, then
where can I get a copy, so I can decode a message
created with 2.6? If ver 2.3 will decode a message
encoded with 2.6, then I'm faced with how I can
extract this Mac file which has a .gz extension.
Binhex don't seem to decode it. So, I now got this
file named "macpgp2.3.cpt.hqx.gz" on my Mac. Was
I supposed to have used some special UNIX itility to
convert the .gz thingie first? Please emlighten
this confused cypherpunker!!! :-) Or will I even have
to do all of this because 2.3 is incompatable with 2.6.
