GnuPG: Can't access keyserver over HKPS

Accessing a keyserver over HKP works, but HKPS doesn't. I'm using GnuPG 2.1.1-1.
# HKP - works

Tried this with both an empty dirmngr.conf and the following (from the bottom of https://sks-keyservers.net/overview-of-pools.php):
hkp-cacert /home/florian/.gnupg/sks-keyservers.netCA.pem no-honor-keyserver-url
The gpg.conf is completely empty.
Any idea what's going wrong here?

@clfarron4: So you didn't change gpg.conf from the default (sorry if I understood this incorrectly)? If so, I think HKPS isn't actually used. See this output, using default gpg.conf:

As you can see, this does work, but doesn't actually use the keyserver specified with --keyserver. It falls back to the one from the config, which uses an unencrypted connection (HKP). Also see http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg- … 29219.html:
Gnupg sends the dirmngr the keyserver it should use with a KEYSERVER command.
In dirmngr's debug output you can see that it sends KEYSERVER --clear <foo>
and then another KEYSERVER command for each keyserver configured.
In my tests it always used the last one.
@jasonwryan: do you have any keyserver(s) specified in your gpg.conf? If yes, then HKPS might not work for you after all. You should be able to check with --debug 1024.

[SOLVED] GnuPG can't find keyserver

I'm trying to import the key from the Tor Browser, following the instructions from https://www.torproject.org/docs/verifyi … es.html.en. When I run
gpg --keyserver x-hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys 0x4E2C6E8793298290
I get as output
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No keyserver available
I have no idea what's going wrong. When I run the same command under Linux Mint on the same computer, it works fine. I also tried deleting ~/.gnupg but that doesn't help as well.

I don't know why it works under Mint (have you tried it recently?). All I can say is that the leading x- usually indicates a non-standatd and/or extended version of the protocol [1].

VPN - can't access internet over VPN

Hi,
I have an issue with VPN.
For my work I need to be able to log into my office network remotely and then access remote desktop connection from within my work network.
This won't work unless I am accessing the internet from inside the VPN.
I have got this working on a PC, just had to select "Use default gateway on remote network" and now when I access the VPN on a windows laptop I am accessing the internet over the VPN.
When I connect to the VPN on the Mac I can access the network, email server, file servers etc, but can not access the internet through the VPN.
I have tried:
- changing the service order
- ticking and unpicking the send all traffic over VPN setting
I can get to the point where I can access my work network over the VPN while also accessing the internet over my wifi but cannot get it so I can access the internet over the VPN connection. It is a PPTP VPN.
Does anyone know how I get my Mac to use the default gateway on the remote network?

If this server is behind a (NAT-) router you need to turn on "ipforwarding only" in Server Admin NAT configuration otherwise the server wont route packets beyond it's subnet.

Can't access Mac over network since Mavericks update

Help! Since the update to Mavericks I can't access my iMac over my home network using my Nexus 7 tablet. I used to do it flawlessly right before I updated from Mountain Lion.
I was using ES File Explorer to browse my shared folders on my Mac from my Android Tablet right away and now I keep getting asked for a username and password to connect. I type it correctly but still not able to connect. I tried other file browing apps for my tablet (File Manger, AndSMB,...) but still unable to connect. The apps can scan my network and find the server address (iMac) but can't get access to it.
I must say that the Tablet can access the internet so it's not Tablet network settings related.
I tried the workaround found here http://cammodude.blogspot.ca/. Still not working. Any suggestions?

Try going back and checking the step 3 on the linked instructions for remote login where it mentions:
Step 3: Now enable “Remote Login” in the Sharing menu of System Preferences.
Read more: http://www.shoutpedia.com/transfer-files-mac-os-x-mavericks-android-phone-wifi-e asy-way/#ixzz30iEam8MC
That's the part that will allow it. I've got "Remote Login" checked there' and and then make sure you have whichever user(s)/groups added for the login you're using. I have that set to Administrators and on then on my phone I have it set up with computer IP, port 22, my computer username which is a First Last type format with the space...whatever it normally says on your login screen on your computer or when you get prompted to allow software installs etc. and then the password.

Thanks for the response!
If I understand your questions correctly,
1 - I'm attempting to access the switch across my network (via wired ethernet) from my admin workstation. The switch does not respond to network discovery attempts, including ping.
2 - I'm unable to ping the switch or any device connected to it from my admin computer. Also, devices connected to the switch can't ping each other, the switch, or any network IP.
3 - The only access I have right now is through the serial console.
I should probably also mention that this switch is being configured on my bench before deployment - if I can get it to work.

How can I access audio over Firewire from a DV camera in Flex/Air?

Hi all,
I've scoured the 'net looking, but I cannot seem to find an answer to my question.
I'm writing an app that captures video and audio in Flex as an Air application. I can use Camera.getCamera() to get the video from my Firewire-connected DV camera just fine, but the audio stream doesn't show up in Microphones at all.
I'm developing on Windows 7 - is there some issue with Windows not exposing the Firewire audio feed as a local sound device? Is there a way around it?
Thanks in advance - I look forward to any help you may be able to offer.
Dave

I should note that the camera (both video and audio) show up as devices just fine in other Adobe CS apps (including FLME). Does anyone have any insight as to how FLME gains access to the DV hardware?

Windows 7 media center MCE plug-in & Elements 8 - can not access catalog over network

Hi,
I have Elements 8 installed on windows 7 and want to use the Microsoft Media Center photoshop plugin to view photographs and slide shows held on a network share. How do I configure the plug-in to find the catalog on the share ( at address P:|Pictures ).
All I can see is an entry for "My Catalog" on screen and a small number of black thumbnails.
Thanks
Kilraughts

For some reason when using the "certified" MCE version of the Forceware drivers, after a short while all the buttons in the menus become "corrupted"
The simple solution: use regular XP/2000 version of Forceware drivers. They still work perfectly in MCE2005, and the graphical corruption doesn't appear.

EDIT: this problem appears to have been corrected in the recent Rollup 2 Update

Can't access email over wifi with iPhone 5, iPod Touch, or iPad

All was working fine, then suddenly stopped. Get message "Cannot Get Mail The connection to the server failed.", followed by "Cannot Get Mail The mail server "imap.yahoo.com" (or "imap,gmail.com) is not responding. Verify that you have entered the correct account info in Mail settings." message. Email works on cellular connection on iPhone; not an option on iPad or iPod Touch. I've tried verifying settings, resetting all devices, deleted and reinstalled email accounts (yahoo and gmail). No luck. Any suggestions?

I got this error for my Gmail, and Hotmail accounts but not for my Exchange account at work. It seems to be a problem on Apple's side since it affects multiple mail systems.

TS1398 I have connected my iPad 2 to my Mac Air over blue tooth. Booth say they are connected to each other. But I can not access the internet on the IPAD. I can connect over blue tooth from my iPhone to my iPad with no issue. Any thoughts? Thank you

I am trying to connect my Ipad 2 to my Mac Air over bluetooth.
I can connect them to each other, and both machines say they are connected over bluetooth.
However I can not access the internet on the Ipad...says it is not connected to the internet.
Does anyone know if you can fix this?
THank you

Yes I tried this manyfold. But did not work. Reading on, I took Tesserac's advice. Shut down router and computer.
Start router after 15 minutes and wait another 10 minutes before starting the computer.
Et voila.... everything is back in working order,

Clarisworks, you need Appleworks, which will only work with Mac OS X10.6.8 or earlier. See this tip if you must go newer. Mac Pros with newer hardware configuration than July 20, 2011 can't use Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier without this tip and then it would be Mac OS X Server. I'm not sure if the new black Mac Pro supports that configuration or not.
iPhoto, there is an iPhoto for all versions of Mac OS X.
iTunes, there is an iTunes for all versions of Mac OS X. Note with iTunes versions 11 and later, which are needed for syncing with iOS 7 or or later, you will lose coverflow, if you liked that feature. Sadly you can't run an older version of iTunes from within Mac OS X 10.9 or later.
Sketchup: http://help.sketchup.com/en/article/60107 shows the versions that will work with intermediate Mac OS X versions, and this shows the latest version: http://help.sketchup.com/en/article/36208 be sure to click on the operating system you choose to use.
GIF - Viewing GIFs Apple's Preview can do that. Editing them, I like http://www.lemkesoft.com/ Graphicconverter.
DMG is able to be opened by all versions of Mac OS X. This are just "disk images" which store programs on a virtual disk that will open when double clicked. Frequently you'll find the installer of the said program inside. To find out if the program itself is compatible with 10.7 through 10.9, see http://www.roaringapps.com/
Otherwise see the resources on:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2455
If you end up deciding to stick with Snow Leopard.

What photos are you referring to? Are these photos that are in the Camera Roll and Photo Stream albums on the device you backed up, or are they in different albums? Are you signed onto the new phone with the same iCloud ID? Are the Photo Stream photos ones that have been taken in the past 30 days?
When you set up the new phone did you set it up using that backup?

After Mac OS X 10.6.3 upgrade can't access Yahoo mail and repeatedly get message ""Sorry, we are over capacity. Please wait a moment and try again." Help, please.

Did you run all the software updates after the 10.6.3 update, especially this one which will bring you up to 10.6.8.
Mac OSX 10.6.8 V1.1 Combo update
Run software update, starting with the one above.
Then call your provider and ask them what is going on. They have probably changed POP to IMAP, 10.6.8 supports IMAP
