I am quite sure that Grant Olson's key is on the keyserver, thus there is no matter of hiding it, as robert j.hansen suggested. however, i wonder why i can't retrieve it. gpg --search-keys A18A54D gpg: Suche nach "A18A54D" von hkp Server pool.sks-keyservers.net gpg: Schlüssel "A18A54D" am Schlüsselserver nicht gefunden i.d. search for A18A54D on hkp server .. key A18A54D not found at the keyserver. on the command line! on the interaction page of sks-keyservers.net the key cannot found either. Any help appreciated. Bernhard
