When you <a href="http://www.fsfe.org/join">join the Fellowship</a>, you
|
|
will automatically receive two letters: One containing your
|
|
personalised Fellowship card, a smart card containing state-of-the-art
|
|
hardware encryption, and another one containing administrative
|
|
information for the Fellowship card.

<h2>Personalised for you</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Fellowship smart card has a unique design that is personalised for you
|
|
with your name and fellowship number. There are three OpenPGP subkeys on the
|
|
smart card:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>A signature subkey, used to sign email, documents and other data.</li>
|
|
<li>An encryption subkey, used to decrypt incoming data and mail.</li>
|
|
<li>An authentication subkey, not used for normal GnuPG operation, which allows
|
|
other tools like SSH or PAM modules to use the Fellowship card for
|
|
authentication and (remote) logins.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Features</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Fellowship card is a so-called "smart card" and requires a smart card
|
|
reader for your computer. Using your Fellowship card in combination with a
|
|
smart card reader, you can: </p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>Sign and encrypt your email.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Use your Fellowship card for single sign-on at your computer.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Log in remotely on your machines using SSH. Because the key is stored
|
|
in hardware and can never leave the card, you can even do this safely from
|
|
a potentially insecure machine.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Use the Fellowship card only for subkeys of your normal GPG key, as
|
|
described in the <a
|
|
href="http://www.gnupg.org/howtos/card-howto/en/smartcard-howto.html">GnuPG
|
|
Smartcard Howto</a> under <a
|
|
href="http://www.gnupg.org/howtos/card-howto/en/ch05.html">Advanced
|
|
Features</a> or the <a href="http://wiki.fsfe.org/Card_howtos">howtos in
|
|
our wiki</a>. Using your Fellowship card with subkeys is recommended.</li>
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Use your imagination</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Fellowship card is indeed a very flexible token that can be used for
|
|
many things -- use your imagination and blog about it.</p>
