 |
|
Where do I obtain Gentoo's public key to verify files?
I'm using a windows box to verify and get the following message:
| Code: |
C:\Program Files\GNU\GnuPG>gpg --verify "c:\stage3-i686-hardened-2.4-2007.0.tar.bz2.asc"
gpg: Signature made 05/02/07 19:33:42 using DSA key ID 17072058
gpg: Can't check signature: public key not found
C:\Program Files\GNU\GnuPG>
|
I'm looking to start fresh and dd my harddrives.
want to be sure of the files.

`gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 17072058`
(I randomly chose a keyserver from google.) |

gpg: Signature made 05/02/07 19:33:42 using DSA key ID 17072058
gpg: Good signature from "Gentoo Linux Release Engineering (Gentoo Linux Release
Signing Key) <releng@gentoo.org>"
gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
Primary key fingerprint: D99E AC73 79A8 50BC E47D A5F2 9E64 38C8 1707 2058

anyway to verify the key fingerprint?
I got the key from a second server and verified with the same result.
Key was unchanged.
If I get the same key from multiple servers, it is probably the correct one.
Marking it solved. Thank you. |
