gpgkeys: HTTP post error 7: couldn't connect: Not found

[Ђорђе Тодоровић]

Newb here. My machine is having problems reaching keyservers unless they are specified
with their IP address. I can't resove hkp://* hostnames and I also can't reach ldap
servers either. (I compiled my gpg with ldap support but it says:
   gpgkeys: protocol `ldap' not supported
   gpg: no handler for keyserver scheme `ldap'
   gpg: keyserver search failed: Keyserver error
so I can't reach them too.)

I am using:
   gpg (GnuPG) 2.0.17
   libgcrypt 1.5.0-beta1

I am not behind a proxy, the other (Windows) computer that is on the same network as me is
reaching servers normal (so, it's probably not a router problem) and I tried reaching
several different servers (well, I tried all the servers that i found) and still no luck
on this machine.

When I try to upload my keys using:
   gpg --keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net --send-keys 1E133339

this is the error that I am getting:
   gpg: sending key 1E133339 to hkp server subkeys.pgp.net
   : can't connect to `subkeys.pgp.net': host not found
   gpgkeys: HTTP post error 7: couldn't connect: Not found
   gpg: keyserver internal error
   gpg: keyserver send failed: Keyserver error

When that failed I tried this:
   gpg --keyserver-options "honor-http-proxy broken-http-proxy" --keyserver \
   hkp://subkeys.pgp.net  --send-keys 1E133339
   
I'm running Gentoo Linux 64bit and 2.6.38 kernel (with hardened patches).
I tried using different DNS nameservers, but still, my machine doesn't know how to resolve
hkp hostnames.
