moin, moin,

this month's ASULUG meeting will be covering gpg.

Next month will be crytptography.

The meeting is this coming Wed at 18:00 in the Computing Commons auditorium.
See the ASULUG website, http://ASULUG.asu.edu/, for directions, etc.


Here's a description rom Austin who's doing the presentation:

###
One Liner:  An ASULUG presentation on PGP/GnuPG will include tips on how 
to use these cryptographic tools and relevant background information.


GnuPG and Personal Communications

A brief introduction to cryptography will be presented, including symmetric
and asymmetric cryptosystems and their uses.  This may also include a
brief history of PGP, GPG, and OpenPGP.  GPG usage, configuration and
key management will be the the main focus.  Time permitting, I will also
include some discussion of trust relationships, compatability and client
incorporation.

I will also be organizing a keysigning party for the same date.  This
requires all of those who are interested in participating to do a few
things.  Briefly you will need to download and install GPG 1.0.6, create
a key, submit public key to a keyserver, bring ID to meeting.  Complete
instructions are available at: http://www.public.asu.edu/~auasg/gpg/ Also be
looking for an announcment on the ASULUG list.
