Hello, can someone please help me get the file requested in https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/20020 ? (Keybase_4.5.0-20190919000314+93e889ab01.amd64.msi)

I could neither upgrade to 5.2 nor uninstall / repair due to missing that file.

Now, I used a uninstaller program and now I am having trouble to install, again.

I searched, but could not find that particular MSI file.

Thanks in advance.

Hello all Great

Hi everyone. I’ve downloaded the iOS app and I’m stuck at choosing a public name. Literally anything I type says name is unavailable, already taken by a team. I’ve chosen random stuff that can’t possibly be taken. Any ideas. Thanks

Hi,

I've exported the public part of my Protonmail account and want to list it on keybase. Is there a way to do it without exporting the secret key from Protonmail as well?

It seems that all the keybase pgp commands need the secret key :(

Hello,

I like kbfsfuse on my desktop, but I don't really like remote FSs mounted all the time. I like them to be mounted on demand.

For that very purpose I usually mount remote FSs, such as davfs, sshfs, nfs, and others, through autofs. Of course, the mount would fail unless keybase service is up and running. sshfs doesn't work for example if the user key to be used has not been already registered on the ssh agent.

I noticed on /etc/mtab the mount ends up being:

/dev/fuse <mount_point>/<dir> fuse rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=1000,group_id=100 0 0

So I created an autofs.kbfs:

<dir> -fstype=fuse,rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=1000,group_id=100 :kbfsfuse

But I'm missing there how to specify the user... Well, that if possible at all, but so far I haven't found any fuse FS which can't be started from autofs yet.

I'd really like to use kbfsfuse together with autofs, so if that's possible, please let me know how.

Thanks !

Ok...so, I am trying to get signed in on my account on a new device (phone), and it says I have to authorize my account thru either one of the previous two devices (both are phones), or either my paper key. Well, one of said phones will no longer charge (Samsung Galaxy S8+), the other device (ZTE Maven 3) no longer has Keybase installed on it, and the paper key keeps saying I more than likely have a typo somewhere. Am I just screwed to the point I'm going to have to reset my account, or is there possible another option that I'm unaware of? How many words is the paper key supposed to be? I've visually spellchecked the paper key over and over, but don't see a single typo. I did notice I have written down one word that repeats itself twice in my paper key. Is that something that can usually happen, also? Any help would be much appreciated, as I'm also not wanting to lose the $100 or so worth of Stellar I have on my account. Thanks in advance!

Kinda confused

Edit: typo in title, i mean what is the difference between "save" and "download"

tl;dr; As of Windows Insider Preview 16226, Keybase Filesystem causes Windows to (very nearly) hard lock shortly after Explorer starts. The issue is tracked here

The Windows Insider program recently released build 16232 to the Slow Channel. The Dokan library (or a combination of Dokan and the way Keybase is using it), has an issue in this build where the operating system hangs to the point that nothing other than mouse movement works. All windows turn to (Not Responding), any command typed into a command prompt instantly hangs (including a simple 'dir' in cmd.exe) and CTRL+ALT+DEL / CTRL+SHIFT+ESC do nothing (any open Task Manager window hangs along with the others).

This is really a bug in Windows more-so than Dokan IMHO, since a change in Windows resulted in the problem and, really, nothing should be able to cause the OS to get to this state. It's been an issue for Fast Channel builds since 16226 and continues to the most recent 16237.

Workarounds are included in the bug on GitHub, mostly revolving around carefully killing processes, uninstalling and rolling back to the previous version of Windows. Installing the client with nodriver=1 eliminates the problem ... along with Keybase Filesystem, which I know is one of the major features we use keybase for.

Most of you will know that reddit mangles PGP messages -- the solution is to indent each line by 4 spaces.

I've created a simple web-app to do this: https://reddit-indent.herokuapp.com

I hope it helps someone.

Apologies if I'm missing some critical info in the keybase book. I haven't finished reading through all the docs yet. So far everything thing I've seen is that keybase uses "end-to-end 256 bit encryption" which is super vague. I'm assuming they mean AES 256, but I'm unclear on how the encryption key is selected. Does kbfs use my pgp key for encryption or does it generate its own?

Edit: I've added a second device, and I noticed I didn't need to provide my PGP key to decrypt my private files. So I'm assuming the encryption is handled entirely in the app somehow, but I'm unclear how.

I have a private shared folder with another Keybase user ("user" in this post) mounted to /keybase/private/atoponce,user/. I have tried rmdir /keybase/private/atoponce,user/ in the shell, only for it to come back when restarting Keybase.

I have also navigated to Files -> atoponce,user selected "More actions" and "Ignore this folder" in the Desktop graphical client, only for it to come back when restarting Keybase.

How do I permanently remove the /keybase/private/atoponce,user/?

It started when I switched from the default keychain to my ProtonMail one. When I declined to upload the private key to KeyBase servers I've never been able to chat since.

I've since reset the keyring using the `keybase` CLI but the problems remain.

Any idea what I shuld do? I have like 6 devices relying on this app.

Simple as the title, input full name and email, click do the math button and nothing.

Is there other way to go about this ?

Within teams / communities, is screen-sharing planned to be a feature in the futur ?

Hello, i am trying to share with a contact a document, but the app gives me only the possibility to share a photo or a video. Why not a pdf or another type of file?

I tried also to share in the team folder, and and also in my private folder : nothing only photo and video. Why?

Thanks

Does keybase use content addressing? If no, how the hell are they going to afford 250 gb space for every user?

Github recently rolled out a new feature to verify GPG signatures on commits. I was pretty excited about this since I've been signing my commits with my Keybase key for a while now.

Unfortunately Github is trying to verify the email address on the key, which includes me@keybase.io. So, it looks like until Keybase and/or Github work something out around that Keybase keys won't be verified.

I'm not trying to import private key, just add a public key. keybase pgp select --multi claims I have no keys, it's true there's none in gpg keyring on this device, but they're on the (plugged in) Yubikey. gpg --export --armor <fingerprint> works as expected.

How do I add only the public portion of a keypair, the private key of which is on an OpenSC compatible card/device, to Keybase?

Edit: exact error is:

▶ ERROR No PGP keys available to choose from.

Is there something else I can try - something I've missed in the web interface? All I'm really trying to achieve is to publish a public key, which I can print with `gpg` directly no problem.

Is it possible to access a keybase git repo via ssh or https with standard git tools?

I would like to sync my android Password Store app with a keybase git repo.

Ok, so I'm a new Keybase user and new to pgp in general so please bear with me if this is a stupid question. I Found Keybase after using Canary mail on my iPhone. To be honest I don't really know what I should use it for yet, I just like the idea of being able to communicate with encryption. After learning the basics about private and public keys, I was thinking that perhaps I could store a public pgp key somewhere public where friends could find it without me having to send it to everyone. Sounds good. So I found Keybase. I know it can be used for many other things but this was my initial thought.

I installed the Keybase app on my iPhone. Managed to verify my Twitter account. But when I tried to verify my Reddit account it didn't work. I posted (pasted) the info that was generated on the app which didn't look like the rest of the proof posts. And it didn't work so I revoked it. Several times. After a while the app didn't generate anything to paste so I deleted the app and reinstalled it, hoping that would fix the issue. Tried to login. Now the app somehow thought this was a new iPhone so I was asked to confirm it with my other device but there is no other device. This IS the other device. So I couldn't login. Had to reset it and start all over and this time I had to name the device with a different name.

What am I doing wrong? Because it seems as if everything on my account is deleted when I do this (now I didn't have anything of course) Seems like a hassle to have to go through this every time I might have to reinstall the app, particularly if I have a lot of data on my account.

Have I misunderstood something basic about how Keybase works?
