Self-decrypting archive for pgp

[Sankar]

Hi,

I am using pgp 7.01 on a solaris box. But, It doesn't seem to create a
self-decrypting archive for me.Help says:

To create a self decrypting archive:
pgp -c +sda textfile [-o output_filename]

inahsuxpdb01> pgp -c +sda cntrlFile_test
PGP e-Business Server(tm) Version 7.0.1
(c) 2000 Network Associates Inc.

Warning: Using insecure memory!

You need a pass phrase to encrypt the file.
Enter pass phrase:
Enter same pass phrase again:

Ciphertext file: cntrlFile_test.sda.exe
inahsuxpdb01> pgp cntrlFile_test.sda.exe
PGP e-Business Server(tm) Version 7.0.1
(c) 2000 Network Associates Inc.

Export of this software may be restricted by the U.S. government.

Warning: Using insecure memory!
File is not a PGP file!

Error: cannot decrypt message

Any advice is appreciated.

Don't use self-decrypting binaries.
