No. I would check to see if you have a firewall or similar blocking the HKP port, as it works here and remotely: apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net --recv-keys 2B8638D0 Executing: gpg --ignore-time-conflict --no-options --no-default-keyring --secret-keyring /etc/apt/secring.gpg --trustdb-name /etc/apt/trustdb.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --keyserver keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net --recv-keys 2B8638D0 gpg: requesting key 2B8638D0 from hkp server keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net gpg: key 2B8638D0: public key "QuickBuild Trinity Desktop Environment" imported gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg: imported: 1 (RSA: 1) > > Just tried http://keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net > in Konqueror, got redirected to > http://find.searchassist.com/landing.jsf?p=cnksver&q=www.keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net&rs=key+server+quick+build+person+computing&kw=&id=ikadgfadiiadc&t=9_9_1_0_1_4_1 That's your ISP rerouting you when it received the error page from my server.

Yes, the QuickBuild certificates are self signed. Yes, I should do something about that! :) > Is your IP address 97.64.229.82 ?
