Introduction
============
GnuPG application for Ledger Blue and Nano S
This application implements "The OpenPGP card" specification revision 3.3. This specification is available in doc directory and at https://g10code.com/p-card.html .
The application supports:
- RSA with key up to 4096 bits
- ECDSA with secp256k1, secp256r1, brainpool 256r1 and brainpool 256t1 curves
- EDDSA with Ed25519 curve
- ECDH with secp256k1, secp256r1, brainpool 256r1, brainpool 256t1 and
curve25519 curves
This release has known missing parts (see also [GPGADD]) :
- Ledger Blue support
- Seed mode ON/OFF via apdu
How to install GPG Application
==============================
Nano S / Blue
-------------
For both, source and binary installation, use the most recent tag.
From Binary
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Use the "Ledger Manager" Chrome App. See https://www.ledgerwallet.com/apps/manager for details.
As the "OpenPGP card" application is not fully compliant with UI and documentation guidelines, the application is in developer section: click on "Show delevopers items" on the bottom right corner to see it.
- Launch the Ledger Manager. See `Ledger Manager <https://www.ledgerwallet.com/apps/manager>`_
and ` <https://ledger.groovehq.com/knowledge_base/topics/ledger-manager>`_
for details about installing and using the manager;
- Connect your Nano S or your Blue, enter your PIN, and stay on the
dashboard;
- Click on *show developer items* on the bottom right corner;
- Click on the green bottom arrow icon near the Ledger *Open PGP* logo;
- Confirm the installation when required on your device by pressing the
right button above the checkmark;
- Quit the Ledger Manager
The application is ready to use!
From source
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Building from sources requires the the Nano S SDK 1.4.2.1 on firmware 1.4.2. See https://github.com/LedgerHQ/nanos-secure-sdk
Refer to the SDK documentation for the compiling/loading...
System Configuration
--------------------
For Linux and MAC, until version 1.4.27, Ledger CCID interface is not supported
by default by pcscd and must be manually added
For windows....
Linux
~~~~~
You have to have to add the NanoS to /etc/libccid_Info.plist
- In <key>ifdVendorID</key> add the entry <string>0x2C97</string>
- In <key>ifdProductID</key> add the entry <string>0x0001</string>
- In <key>ifdFriendlyName</key> add the entry <string>Ledger Token</string>
These 3 entries must be added at the end of each list.
MAC
~~~
1. First it is necessary to [disable SIP](https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Security/Conceptual/System_Integrity_Protection_Guide/ConfiguringSystemIntegrityProtection/ConfiguringSystemIntegrityProtection.html) That doesn't allow the editing of files in /usr/.
2. You have to add the Nano S to /usr/libexec/SmartCardServices/drivers/ifd-ccid.bundle/Contents/Info.plist
- In <key>ifdVendorID</key> add the entry <string>0x2C97</string>
- In <key>ifdProductID</key> add the entry <string>0x0001</string>
- In <key>ifdFriendlyName</key> add the entry <string>Ledger Token</string>
This 3 entries must be added at the end of each list.
3. [Enable SIP](https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/Security/Conceptual/System_Integrity_Protection_Guide/ConfiguringSystemIntegrityProtection/ConfiguringSystemIntegrityProtection.html)

| \ *App 1.0.1*
| Emphasis entries are not selectable and just provide information.
| A "**#**" after the entry label means default value on reset.
| A "**+**" after the entry label means current value.
Device Info
-------------
The *Device Info* provides current user and slot information. The format is:
| <User: **name**/ Slot: **n** / Serial: **s** >
with:
* **name** is the one provided to ``gpg --card-edit``. See [GPGSC].
* **n** is the current slot, see below.
* **s** is the 32 bits card serial number. Note that the last three bits always
encode the current slot value.
Select Slot
-------------
This menu is only available on ``XL`` version
A Slot is a set of
three key pairs *Signature, Decryption, Authentication* as defined by gnupg
specification.
Usually a GPG card application only manages a single set. Ledger version enhances
this and allows you to manage three key sets.
The *Select Slot* menu allows you to select the slot you want to play with, and
to set the default slot when the application start.
To change the current slot, display the slot you want and select it
To change the default slot, first select it, and then select the *Set Default*
entry.
Settings
--------
Key Template
~~~~~~~~~~~~
A key template is defined by the OpenGPG card application specification. It
describes the key to be generated with the ``generate`` command in
``gpg --card-edit``
The problem is there is no way with the ``gpg --card-edit`` command line
to easily set up the desired template, except for Ed25519.
To set up a new ECC template you have tow choice: the NanoS menu or the
gpg-connect-agent tools.
**gpg-connect-agent** (recommended)
This method suppose you have correctly configured your GnuPG tool.
See the dedicated section for that.
In a terminal launch :
gpg-connect-agent "SCD SETATTR KEY-ATTR --force 1 <tag> <curvename>" /bye
gpg-connect-agent "SCD SETATTR KEY-ATTR --force 2 18 <curvename>" /bye
gpg-connect-agent "SCD SETATTR KEY-ATTR --force 3 <tag> <curvename>" /bye
This 3 commands fix, in that order, the template for Signature, Decryption, Authentication keys.
Supported curve name are:
- secp256k1 with tag 19
- nistp256 with tag 19
- cv25519 (only for key 2)
- ed25519 with tag 22 (only for key 1 and 3)
To show the current template use the ``gpg --card-status`` command.
**NanoS menu**
First under *Choose Key* menu, select the one of three keys for which you want to modify
the template. Then under "Choose Type", select the desired key template.
Finally select "Set Template" entry to set it.
To show the current template use the ``gpg --card-status`` command.
Seed mode
~~~~~~~~~
**WARNING** : SEED MODE IS EXPERIMENTAL
When generating new keys on NanoS, those keys can be generated randomly
or in a deterministic way. The deterministic way is specified in [GPGADD].
The current mode is displayed in the first sub menu. To activate the seeded
mode select *ON*, to deactivate the seeded mode select *OFF*.
When the application starts, the seeded mode is always set to *OFF*
**WARNING** : SEED MODE IS EXPERIMENTAL
PIN mode
~~~~~~~~
Some operations require the user to enter his PIN code.
The default PIN values are:
- user: ``123456``
- admin: ``12345678``
The PIN entry can be done using four methods, named
"*Host*", "*On Screen*", "*Confirm only*", "*Trust*".
After each mode a *+* or *#* symbol may appear to tell which mode is the current one
and which one is the default when the application starts.
The default mode can be changed by first selecting the desired mode and then
selecting the *Set default" menu. Note that *Trust* can not be set as default mode.
Before you can change the PIN mode, you need to verify the PIN on the client. To do this,
run ``gpg --card-edit``, then ``admin`` and finally ``verify`` on you PC. You will then
be asked to enter the current PIN. After doing so, you can change the PIN mode on your
device.
Note that *On Screen*", "*Confirm only*" and "*Trust*" may not work if the
client application does not support it. In that case the "*Host*" should be
automatically used by the client in a transparent way.
**Host**
The PIN is entered on the external computer.
**On Screen**
The PIN is entered on the Nano S or Blue screen. For entering the PIN choose the
next digit by using the left or right button. When the digit you expect is displayed
select it by pressing both buttons ar the same time
.. image:: pin_entry.png
:align: middle
Once all digits are selected, validate the PIN by selecting the **'V'** (Validate)
letter
.. image:: pin_validate.png
:align: middle
If you want to change the previous digit select the **'C'** (Cancel) letter.
.. image:: pin_cancel.png
:align: middle
Finnaly if you want to abort the PIN entry, select the **'A'** (Abort) letter.
.. image:: pin_abort.png
:align: middle
**Confirm only**
The user is requested, on the NanoS or Blue screen, to confirm
the PIN validation. The PIN value is not required, the user just has
to push the *REJECT* or *OK* button on the device.
This is the default mode after application installation.
.. image:: pin_confirm.png
:align: middle
**Trust**
Act as if the PIN is always validated. This is a dangerous mode which should only be
used in a highly secure environment.
UIF mode
~~~~~~~~
By activating UIF mode for either signature, decryption or authentication, a user validation
will be ask by the device each time the related operation is performed.
To activate or deactivate the UIF, select the operation to protect and press both button.
When activated, a '+' symbol appears after the operation name.
Reset
~~~~~
Selecting the menu will erase all OpenPGP Card Application data and will
reset the application in its '*just installed*' state.
Nano S OpenPGP Card application usage
=====================================
GPG
---
The OpenGPG Card application need at least version 2.1.19 for full support.
A version prior to 2.1.19 will fail when using ECC.
You should test with a test key and make a backup of your
keyring before starting, except if your are sure about what you do.
Configuration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In order to use a Ledger device with gpg it is needed to explicitly setup
the reader and the delegated PIN support.
Edit the file ~/.gnupg/scdaemon.conf and add the following lines:
| ``reader-port "Ledger Token [Nano S] (0001) 01 00"``
| ``allow-admin``
| ``enable-pinpad-varlen``
If you do not set the ``enable-pinpad-varlen`` option, even if Nano S is
configured in *On Screen* mode, gpg will keep requesting the PIN on the host.
You can check ``the reader-port`` value by running the command line ``pcsc_scan``:
| ``$ pcsc_scan ``
| ``PC/SC device scanner``
| ``V 1.4.27 (c) 2001-2011, Ludovic Rousseau <ludovic.rousseau@free.fr>``
| ``Compiled with PC/SC lite version: 1.8.14``
| ``Using reader plug'n play mechanism``
| ``Scanning present readers...``
| ``0: Alcor Micro AU9560 00 00``
| ``1: Ledger Token [Nano S] (0001) 01 00``
| ``Reader 0: Alcor Micro AU9560 00 00``
| ``Card state: Card removed, ``
| ``Reader 1: Ledger Token [Nano S] (0001) 01 00``
| ``Card state: Card inserted, ``
| ``ATR: 3B 00``
| ``+ TS = 3B --> Direct Convention``
| ``+ T0 = 00, Y(1): 0000, K: 0 (historical bytes)``
Get/Set basic information
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The ``gpg --card-status`` command provides default card information. Just after
installation it should look like this:
| ``$ gpg --card-status``
| ``Reader ...........: Ledger Token [Nano S] (0001) 01 00``
| ``Application ID ...: D2760001240103002C97AFB114290000``
| ``Version ..........: 3.0``
| ``Manufacturer .....: unknown``
| ``Serial number ....: AFB11429``
| ``Name of cardholder: [not set]``
| ``Language prefs ...: [not set]``
| ``Sex ..............: unspecified``
| ``URL of public key : [not set]``
| ``Login data .......: [not set]``
| ``Signature PIN ....: not forced``
| ``Key attributes ...: rsa2048 rsa2048 rsa2048``
| ``Max. PIN lengths .: 12 12 12``
| ``PIN retry counter : 3 0 3``
| ``Signature counter : 0``
| ``Signature key ....: [none]``
| ``Encryption key....: [none]``
| ``Authentication key: [none]``
| ``General key info..: [none]``
You can set the user information with the ``gpg --card-edit`` command and
``name``, ``url``, ``login``, ``lang``, ``sex`` subcommands. For example if you
want to set up your name:
| ``$ gpg --card-edit``
| ``gpg/card> admin``
| ``Admin commands are allowed``
| ````
| ``gpg/card> name``
| ``Cardholder's surname: Mesnil``
| ``Cardholder's given name: Cedric``
| ````
| ``gpg/card> sex``
| ``Sex ((M)ale, (F)emale or space): M``
| ````
| ``gpg/card> list``
| ````
| ``Reader ...........: Ledger Token [Nano S] (0001) 01 00``
| ``Application ID ...: D2760001240103002C97AFB114290000``
| ``Version ..........: 3.0``
| ``Manufacturer .....: unknown``
| ``Serial number ....: AFB11429``
| ``Name of cardholder: Cedric Mesnil``
| ``Language prefs ...: [not set]``
| ``Sex ..............: unspecified``
| ``URL of public key : [not set]``
| ``Login data .......: [not set]``
| ``Signature PIN ....: not forced``
| ``Key attributes ...: rsa2048 rsa2048 rsa2048``
| ``Max. PIN lengths .: 12 12 12``
| ``PIN retry counter : 3 0 3``
| ``Signature counter : 0``
| ``Signature key ....: [none]``
| ``Encryption key....: [none]``
| ``Authentication key: [none]``
| ``General key info..: [none]``
Notes:
* Modifying the user information will prompt you to enter ``User PIN``.
* Setting user information is not required for using gpg client.
Generate new key pair
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For generating a new key pair follow those steps:
- Select the desired NanoS OpenPGP Card application slot
- Setup the desired key template for this slot
- Generate the new key set
**Step 1**
Starting from main menu:
- Select *Select slot* menu
- Scroll to desired slot
- Select it
- Optionally set it as default by selecting *Set Default* menu
- Select *Back* to return to main menu.
**Step 2**
The default template for each three keys (*signature*, *decryption*,
*authentication*) is ``RSA 2048``. If you want another kind of key
you have to set the template before generating keys.
!WARNING!: changing the current template of a key automatically erases
the associated key.
Starting from main menu:
- Select *Settings* menu
- Select *Key template* menu
- Select *Choose Key...* menu (a)
- Scroll and select which key you want to set the new template for
- Select *Choose type...* menu
- Scroll and select among the supported key types and sizes
- Select *Set template*
- Repeat this process from (a) if you want to modify another key
template
- Select *Back* to return to main menu.
**Step 3**
Once the template has been set, it's possible to generate new key pairs
with ``gpg``.
!WARNING!: gpg will generate the three key pairs and
will overwrite any key already present in the selected slot.
Here after is a detailed log of key generation of ECC keys, assuming
the three key templates are ``NIST P256``.
**Edit Card**
| ``$ gpg2 --edit-card``
| ``Reader ...........: Ledger Token [Nano S] (0001) 01 00``
| ``Application ID ...: D2760001240103002C97AFB1142B0000``
| ``Version ..........: 3.0``
| ``Manufacturer .....: unknown``
| ``Serial number ....: AFB1142B``
| ``Name of cardholder: Cedric Mesnil``
| ``Language prefs ...: [not set]``
| ``Sex ..............: male``
| ``URL of public key : [not set]``
| ``Login data .......: [not set]``
| ``Signature PIN ....: not forced``
| ``Key attributes ...: nistp256 nistp256 nistp256``
| ``Max. PIN lengths .: 12 12 12``

| ``ssb> nistp256 2017-08-22 [E]``
Moving existing key pair
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This section shows how to move an existing key onto the Ledger device.
The key to transfer here is a RSA 4096 bits key:
| ``$ gpg2 --list-secret-keys "RSA 4096"``
| ``sec rsa4096 2017-04-26 [SC]``
| `` FB6C6C75FB016635872ED3E49B93CB47F954FB53``
| ``uid [ultimate] RSA 4096``
| ``ssb rsa4096 2017-04-26 [E]``
In case of transfer it is not necessary to previously set the template.
It will be automatically changed.
When generating a new key, the three keys (*signature*, *decryption*,
*authentication*)) are automatically generated.
When transferring existing ones, it is possible to choose which one will be
moved.

The encryption key is now associated with a card.
Decrypting and Signing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Decrypting and Signing will act exactly the same way as if keys were not on
the card. The only difference is ``gpg`` will request the PIN code instead
of the passphrase.
SSH
---
Overview
~~~~~~~~
In order to use gpg for SSH authentication, an "authentication" is needed.
There are two solutions for that, either generate one on the device
or add an authentication sub-key to your existing master gpg key.
Once done, it is necessary to configure ssh to point to the right key and
delegate the authentication to *gpg-ssg-agent* instead of *ssh-agent*.
Generate new key on device
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The important thing to keep in mind here is there is no way to tell gpg to
only generate the authentication key. So generating this key will also
generate the two other under a new identity and will erase existing keys
on the current slot on the device.
Nevertheless, if you want to use a different identity for ssh login, you can use
another slot on the device. See `Nano S OpenPGP Card application explained`
and `Generate new key pair`.

Configure SSH and GPG
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First, tell gpg-agent to enable ssh-auth feature by adding the following line
to your .gpg-agent.conf:
``enable-ssh-support``
Starting with gpg2 it necessary to add some configuration options to make the *pinentry*
work properly. Add the following line to ~/.bashrc file:
| ``export SSH_AUTH_SOCK=`gpgconf --list-dirs agent-ssh-socket` ``
| ``export GPG_TTY=`tty` ``
| ``gpgconf --launch gpg-agent ``
It may be also necessary to setup the loopback pinentry options.
Add the following line to your ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf:
``allow-loopback-pinentry``
And add the following line to your ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf:
``pinentry-mode loopback``
Then export your authentication public key. First execute the
``gpg -k --with-subkey-fingerprint --with-keygrip cedric`` command.
| ``pub rsa2048 2017-08-25 [SC]``
| `` 7886147C4C2E5CE2A4B1546C831415DA94A9A15C``
| `` Keygrip = DE2B63C13AB92EBD2D05C1021A9DAA2D40ECB564``
| ``uid [ultimate] cedric``
| ``sub rsa2048 2017-08-25 [E]``
| `` 789E56872A0D9A5AC8AF9C2F8E95F2999EEC38C4``
| `` Keygrip = 9D7C2EF8D84E3B31371A09DFD9A4B3EF72AB4ACE``
| ``sub rsa2048 2017-08-28 [A]``
| `` 2D0E4FFFAA448AA2770C7F02C20B90E12F68F035``
| `` Keygrip = 6D60CB58D9D66EE09804E7FE460E865A91F5E41A``
Add the keygrip of the authentication key, the one identified by ``[A]``,
to .gnupg/sshcontrol file:
| ``$ echo 6D60CB58D9D66EE09804E7FE460E865A91F5E41A > .gnupg/sshcontrol``
Export your authentication key, identifier by its fingerprint, in a SSH compliant format.
| ``$ gpg --export-ssh-key 2D0E4FFFAA448AA2770C7F02C20B90E12F68F035``
| ``ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQDCIARKh0IZTHld+I6oA8nwrgnCUQE8f``

| ``d3Y6pY8LjS3xQkECc3Bhedptp17D+H9AVJt openpgp:0x2F68F035``
Finaly copy the above export (``ssh-rsa AAAAB...Jt openpgp:0x2F68F035``) into the
~/.ssh/authorized_keys file on your remote server.
Now, if everything is correctly setup and running, an ``ssh-add -l`` should show your key:
| ``$ ssh-add -l``
| ``2048 SHA256:sLCzsoi5GAG2kJkG6hSp8gTLPxSvo/zNtsks2kQ7vTU cardno:2C979421A9E1 (RSA)``
| ``2048 SHA256:sLCzsoi5GAG2kJkG6hSp8gTLPxSvo/zNtsks2kQ7vTU (none) (RSA)``
And you should be able to ssh to your remote server with your gpg key!
Backup and Restore
------------------
Introduction
~~~~~~~~~~~~
"The OpenPGP card" specification does not provide any mechanism for backuping you key.
Thus if you generate your keys on device and loose it, you definitively loose you private key.
In order to avoid such extreme panic situation, a backup/restore mechanism is provided.
At any time you can backup a snapshot of your device data, including your private keys.
All public data are retrieve in clear form. The private key are stored
encrypted with a key derived from your seed, i.e. from your 24 BIP words.
The backup/restore tool is located in ``pytools`` directory:
| ``usage: gpgcli.py [-h] [--adm-pin PIN] [--backup] [--backup-keys] [--file FILE]``
| `` [--pinpad] [--reader READER] [--reset] [--restore]``
| `` [--set-serial SERIAL] [--set-fp SIG:DEC:AUT] [--seed-key]``
| `` [--user-pin PIN]``
|
| ``optional arguments:``
| `` -h, --help show this help message and exit``
| `` --adm-pin PIN Administrative PIN, if pinpad not used``
| `` --backup Perfom a full backup except the key``
| `` --backup-keys Perfom keys encrypted backup``
| `` --file FILE basckup/restore file``
| `` --pinpad PIN validation will be deledated to pinpad``
| `` --reader READER PCSC reader``
| `` --reset Reset the application. All data are erased``
| `` --restore Perfom a full restore except the key``
| `` --set-serial SERIAL set the four serial bytes``
| `` --set-fp SIG:DEC:AUT sig:dec:aut fingerprints, 20 bytes each in hexa``
| `` --seed-key Regenerate all keys, based on seed mode``
| `` --slot SLOT slot to backup``
| `` --user-pin PIN User PIN, if pinpad not used``
First you must either provide your pin codes or use the pinpad (onscreen pin). This is
done by giving either ``--adm-pin`` AND ``--user-pin`` or ``--pinpad``. Note that
using ``--xx-pin`` may compromise your pin codes.
Then you must precise if you want a backup or a restore with ``--backup`` or ``--restore``
By default backup is performed without saving keys, assuming you use the seed mode.
If you also want to backup keys you have to pass the ``--backup-keys`` option.
In a general manner it is better to also save your keys with ``--backup-keys`` option.
Note that backup and restore works on current slot, so you have to perform a backup per slot
even if some data are shared. You can precise the slot/backup to restore with ``--slot``
Backup and Restore example
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First you must have the path of the `ledger-app-openpgp-card/pytools` in your PYTHONPATH.
full backup command:
| ``python3 -m gpgcard.gpgcli --backup --pinpad --backup-keys --file my_bck_file_name.pickle``
backup command without private keys:
| ``python3 -m gpgcard.gpgcli --backup --pinpad --file my_bck_file_name.pickle``
full restore command:
| ``python3 -m gpgcard.gpgcli --backup --pinpad --file my_bck_file_name.pickle``
full restore command with seed key generation:
| ``python3 -m gpgcard.gpgcli --backup --pinpad --seed --file my_bck_file_name.pickle``
Restore without backup
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you have seeded key but do not have done a backup and still have your keyring, there is a
solution to restore at least the key and their related information: serial and fingerprints.
All other information such as name, url, ... shall be set manually with ``gpg --card-edit``.
**Step 1: retrieve information**
Run the command ``gpg --edit-key John``, replace John by your own key id.
| ``$ gpg --edit-key John``
| ``gpg: WARNING: unsafe permissions on homedir './test/ring'``
| ``gpg (GnuPG) 2.2.4; Copyright (C) 2017 Free Software Foundation, Inc.``
| ``This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it.``
| ``There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law.``
|
| ``Secret key is available.``
|
| ``sec ed25519/8451AAF7D43D1095``
| `` created: 2018-10-10 expires: never usage: SC ``
| `` card-no: 2C97 FD6C11BE``
| `` trust: ultimate validity: ultimate``
| ``ssb ed25519/C5A8FB078520ABBB``
| `` created: 2018-10-10 expires: never usage: A ``
| `` card-no: 2C97 FD6C11BE``
| ``ssb cv25519/0953D871FC4B9EA4``
| `` created: 2018-10-10 expires: never usage: E ``
| `` card-no: 2C97 FD6C11BE``
| ``[ultimate] (1). John Doe``
|
| ``gpg> ``
|
The ``usage`` field tells you each key purpose: ``SC`` or ``S`` for signature, ``A`` for authentication, ``E`` for encryption.
The ``card-no``field provides you with the serial number of the card on which the key are stored.
You should have three or less keys with the same serial. These are the keys we want to restore.
For each key you also have the key template (rsa2048, rsa3072, rsa4096, ed2559, cv25519) followed by the
short fingerprint, e.g. ``ed25519/8451AAF7D43D1095``
Note the serial and the three key template names: ``FD6C11BE`` , ``ed25519:cv25519:ed25519``.
Take care of the order: ``SC:E:A``.
Now type the ``quit`` command.
To get the full fingerprint of each key, run (yes twice ``--fingerprint``):
``gpg --fingerprint --fingerprint John``,
| ``$ gpg --fingerprint --fingerprint John``
| ``gpg: WARNING: unsafe permissions on homedir './test/ring'``
| ``pub ed25519 2018-10-10 [SC]``
| `` 2C68 8345 BDDA 0EDF B24D B4FB 8451 AAF7 D43D 1095``
| ``uid [ultimate] John Doe``
| ``sub ed25519 2018-10-10 [A]``
| `` CEC5 9AE6 A766 14BC 3C6D 37D9 C5A8 FB07 8520 ABBB``
| ``sub cv25519 2018-10-10 [E]``
| `` DF15 7BD4 AC3B D1EE 9910 99C8 0953 D871 FC4B 9EA4``
Assemble the three full fingerprint, corresponding to the one identified previously,
in the the following order ``SC:E:A`` :
``2C688345BDDA0EDFB24DB4FB8451AAF7D43D1095:DF157BD4AC3BD1EE991099C80953D871FC4B9EA4:
CEC59AE6A76614BC3C6D37D9C5A8FB078520ABBB``.
**Step 1: restore**
Plug you Nano S and run the OpenPGP application.
Finally run the following command :
| ``python3 -m gpgcard.gpgcli --pinpad --set-template ed255519:cv25519:ed255519 --set-fingerprints ``
| `` '2C688345BDDA0EDFB24DB4FB8451AAF7D43D1095:DF157BD4AC3BD1EE991099C80953D871FC4B9EA4:CEC59AE6A76614BC3C6D37D9C5A8FB078520ABBB'``
| `` --set-serial 'FD6C11BE' --seed ``
Trouble/FAQ
-----------
**Q:** pinentry failed with a strange canceled message:
**R:** there is some problem with gpg2 and pinentry-gnome3. You may update your system
to use pinentry-gtk-2. Under Ubuntu-like OS, use ``update-alternatives --config pinentry``
| ````
**Q:** gpg-connection agent failed
**R:** check that you don't have multiple running agents. After setting-up all SSH stuff, try to fully
logout/login
