I was wrong, suggestion 2 does not work either. I have tried with (1) keyserver-options ca-cert-file=../keyserversCA.pem (2) keyserver-options ca-cert-file=symlink_to_home/keyserversCA.pem (3) keyserver-options ca-cert-file=$HOME/keyserverCA.pem I also tried moving the certificate into ~/.gnupg/ and did: (4) keyserver-options ca-cert-file=keyserverCA.pem (5) keyserver-options ca-cert-file=./keyserverCA.pem None of them works. Any other suggestion without writing the full path? I would like it to work for both Alice and Bob, but would like to keep the certificate into the home directory.
