You should be using the "system" files. On Cygwin that means installing the ca-certificates package (currently version 2.14-1). They are installed in a location where the SSL package expects them, you don't have to go look for them, and shouldn't need to specify its location (a directory) on your gpg.conf [snip] > $ grep "^keyserver" ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf > keyserver hkps://pgp.mit.edu/ > keyserver-options check-cert=on > keyserver-options ca-cert-file=/etc/pki/tls/cert.pem Wrong cert actually, I don't know why you say it worked. The cert that should have matched is the one used by the key server, not by you. -- R.
