I'm beginning to understand what is going on. To pierce our firewall, I
have to "socksify" some applications. I had built a "socksified"
version of OpenLDAP (2.1.3 for hpux from hpux.cs.utah.edu), but I hadn't
done that gpgkeys_ldap.
In the process of debugging, I rebuilt openssl and openldap with and
without "socksifying". Without "socks", the ldapsearch sanity check
above gave the same error I saw gpgkeys_ldap.
I've built socks version of gpgkeys_ldap. For the test above,
output.txt is:
VERSION 0
PROGRAM 1.0.7
SEARCH prz at mit.edu BEGIN
COUNT 1
C7463639B2D7795E:Philip R. Zimmermann <prz at mit.edu>:0:978671783::1012552348:DSS/DH:3072
SEARCH prz at mit.edu END
Things are beginning to appear to work. However, while this works:
gpg --keyserver ldap://64.94.85.200 --recv-keys 0xB2D7795E
if I try:
gpg --keyserver ldap://pgp.surfnet.nl:11370 --recv-keys 0xB2D7795E
I still get the LDAP bind error.
