Please select what kind of key you want: (1) RSA and RSA (default) (2) DSA and Elgamal (3) DSA (sign only) (4) RSA (sign only) Your selection? RSA keys may be between 1024 and 4096 bits long. What keysize do you want? (2048) Requested keysize is 2048 bits Please specify how long the key should be valid. 0 = key does not expire = key expires in n days w = key expires in n weeks m = key expires in n months y = key expires in n years Key is valid for? (0) Key does not expire at all Is this correct? (y/N) y
You need a user ID to identify your key; the software constructs the user ID from the Real Name, Comment and Email Address in this form: "Heinrich Heine (Der Dichter) "
Real name: tester Email address: snipped-for-privacy@example.com Comment: example You selected this USER-ID: "tester (example) "
Change (N)ame, (C)omment, (E)mail or (O)kay/(Q)uit? O You need a Passphrase to protect your secret key.
You don't want a passphrase - this is probably a *bad* idea! I will do it anyway. You can change your passphrase at any time, using this program with the option "--edit-key".
We need to generate a lot of random bytes. It is a good idea to perform some other action (type on the keyboard, move the mouse, utilize the disks) during the prime generation; this gives the random number generator a better chance to gain enough entropy.
Not enough random bytes available. Please do some other work to give the OS a chance to collect more entropy! (Need 263 more bytes)
At this time, pressed other 4000 key, move mouse, wait ten minutes, nothing!
The string "Not enough random bytes available. ... (Need 263 more bytes)" is displayed after approx 2 seconds after "We need to generate a lot of random bytes...".
What is wrong?
