The
installation instructions at
http://www.trinitydesktop.org/installation.php says to run the
command
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver
keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net --recv-keys 2B8638D0
This fails with
gpgkeys: HTTP fetch error 7: couldn't connect to host
Would someone please check out the server?
Thanks-

Hi Douglas,
The server is working fine and is accessible from outside
computers. Perhaps you ran into a temporary connectivity issue?

Hi, Tim,
Nope, still not accessible from here:

Is this normal HTTP -- TCP/80 or TCP/443 ?
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

That's your ISP rerouting you when it received the error page from my
server. Certain ISPs do that and I find it quite annoying actually!
Also tried
https://keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net
and got an SSL certificate error for a self-signed cert.
Yes, the QuickBuild certificates are self signed. Yes, I should do
something about that! :)
Is your IP address 97.64.229.82 ?
The QuickBuild system is on that IP address, yes.
Do you have any idea how to download the key manually
with a browser
(assuming the aforementioned HTTPS site is the right one)?
No idea, sorry. I use the HKP system exclusively here.
