114 | |||
115 | IMPORTANT: mod_gnutls currently cannot read encrypted OpenPGP credentials. That | ||
116 | is, when you generate a key with gpg and gpg prompts you for a passphrase, just | ||
117 | press enter. Then press enter again, to confirm an empty passphrase. | ||

120 | These instructions are from the GnuTLS manual: | ||

126 | Make a note of the OpenPGP key identifier of the newly generated key, here it | ||
127 | was 5D1D14D8. You will need to export the key for GnuTLS to be able to use it. | ||
