WinPT upload problem

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I have an issue with signing a key with an exportable key (I got that
fix) but I keep getting a message when I try to send the key back to
the server with my signature. "http://wwwkeys.pgp.net:11371: Could not
connect to the host". This is from gpg4win download I have from just
recent (8/10-8/11). What can I do to fix this without having to copy
to clipboard, going to same server's web page and pasting?

That URL is a collection of keyservers; you use a random one and thus
you can't know whether this is a local or a keyserver problem. However
that URL collects all kinds of keyservers incluing those which do not
work correctly with OpenPGP keys. Just don't use that URL.

A suggest to use hkp://keys.gnupg.net which directs only to keyservers
known to work. All these keyservers are syncronized, so it does in
practice not matter which one you use.

Or hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net which is updated twice per day to only include
online and synchronized keyservers.

Disclaimer: I operate a SKS keyserver which is often included in the pool.
