[Could you please send me the error output you get when decrypting the encrypted message I sent you yesterday, telling you that I had problems in checking keyserver's connection as well, it's just that I'm eager to know and I want to exclude key compromise]. In order to get the details of the communication of keyserver helper programs with the keyserver you should use the --use-temp-files and --keep-temp-files --keyserver options. For example, I tried (a hundred times, with variations) to refresh your key attempting to log keyserver<->helpers communication to check it myself before giving advice gpg2 --keyserver hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net --refresh-keys 4F765425380A9BBA5F0E0892CC9D1E072AC97369 --no-emit-version --display-charset utf-8 --keyserver-options ca-cert-file=~/sks-keyservers.netCA.pem,use-temp-files=/tmp/tempfile.txt,keep-temp-files,verbose --debug-level 2 But tempin.txt tempout.txt are nowhere. I made a search in the gnupg's pipermail list archive and I consistently found surely authoritative indication of David Shaw that adding --debug 1024 --keyserver-options "use-temp-files keep-temp-files" do result in tempin.txt tempout.txt being logged somewhere. I successfully generated those files in the past when checking communication with keyservers, but I haven't wrote it down and I can't integrate David Shaw's instructions into the above mentioned command-line I used. I'm giving up on this now, eager to hear once for all times HOW to successfully create them.
