Hi,

I wish to learn how I can use the same GPG key pair (my key) on both
my home and work computers.
For those of you who use more than one computer, how do you manage your keys?
I want to be able to use my keys for signing/encryption on both my
home and my work desktops.
How do I copy my key-pair from my home computer to my work computer?
Moving the .gnupg folder is not an option really since my work
computer has a keyring with some keys of others on it - just that it
does not have my private key.

Searching the internet for info regarding how people use the same key
pair in different OSes/computers yielded nothing. All the guides seem
to assume that folks have only one computer :)

Thank you,
Carthik.
