I am a beginner in GNU PGP security stuff. I am trying to learn a few things.

For example, if I take the Symmetric key for a particular file blah

gpg --symmetric --no-use-agent "$blah"

it now tells me to enter secret key/password. After entering that , it generates a file named blah.gpg.

But, is there a place where gpg stores all the keys? If yes, where , can I access the DB it via sqlite3 and can be ported to the server end.

Thanks!

Symmetric keys are not stored. You give them and the program applies and forgets them. keys for asymmetric ciphers are stored in ~/.gnupg/ by default. And I don't think they are stored using sqlite3.
