Hi, I am using Crypt::OpenPGP to encrypt a file on my clients computers. I have created a public key file and a private key file. I then give the public key file to my clients and use a script to encrypt a file on thier computers and send it to my server where it is decrypted using my secring file. This method appears to work for me but I have two questions. 1. Am I using true PGP Encryption since I am only using one pub and 1 private file in the process? 2. Am I opening up any major vulnerability by allowing my clients to all use the same pubring file? Thanks in advance for any information and assistance in this matter
