Scott,

When sending your files offsite, do you need them to be signed or just
encrypted? If you need to know that the files actually originated from a
particular machine, you do need them signed. However, if you are only
concerned about protecting the files en route maybee you just need to
encrypt the files to your public key, which does not require a password.

Just a thought.
