Sure, that's no problem at all. It's like generating one with GnuPG,
exporting, and then importing it again.
Well, that works. I used keys from CAs, too and it worked. Even, like I said
if I copy and paste it from an LDAP-Browser it works.
Only when directly trying to import it via LDAP it doesn't and only with
WinGnuPG. This seems really bizarre, doesn't it.
Could it be a compiling problem?
