Since you are changing things up, I'd go ahead and change my key's passphrase as well. However, as you mention, that passphrase never leaves the local system, so it couldn't have been leaked through usage. Therefore, there's no reason I can think to justify changing it. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
