Hi

I'm trying to get GnuPG 1.0.6-2 to retrieve a key from a keyserver in
Windows 2000 (using the binary package found on www.gnupg.org).
Whenever I try to request a key, though, it gives me an error
(instantly... it's not even trying to query the keyserver):

(~/c/gnupg) 5:18am spong@deadzone> ./gpg.exe --recv-keys 0x12345678
gpg: requesting key 12345678 from wwwkeys.pgp.net ...
gpg: write failed: ec=87
gpg: can't get key from keyserver: No error

This works fine with the same version of GnuPG on Linux, but not on
Win2k.  Does anybody else have this problem?  Is there a workaround or a
fix?

thanks
Matt
