NAME
addgnupghome
- Create .gnupg home directories
SYNOPSIS
addgnupghome
account_1
account_2...
account_n
DESCRIPTION
If GnuPG is installed on a system with existing user accounts, it is
sometimes required to populate the GnuPG home directory with existing
files. Especially a '
trustlist.txt' and a keybox with some
initial certificates are often desired. This script helps to do this
by copying all files from '
/etc/skel/.gnupg' to the home
directories of the accounts given on the command line. It takes care
not to overwrite existing GnuPG home directories.
addgnupghome is invoked by root as:
-
addgnupghome account1 account2 ... accountn
