Hi,

I am doing a search for key B973BA7B with gpg:

gpg --version
gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.11

gpg --keyserver hkp://109.230.243.87 --search-key B973BA7B
gpg: searching for "B973BA7B" from hkp server 109.230.243.87
(1) NetBank AG <pgp at netbank.de> 1024 bit 
    DSA key B973BA7B, created: 2000-09-27 

The key is found. Same search with gpg2:

gpg2 --version
gpg (GnuPG) 2.0.17
libgcrypt 1.5.0 

gpg2 --keyserver hkp://109.230.243.87 --search-key B973BA7B
gpg: searching for "B973BA7B" from hkp server 109.230.243.87 
gpg: key "B973BA7B" not found on keyserver

the key will not be found.

Known error, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,

Klaus
