Tools right after he tried created his first key. "upload key after
generation" was unchecked. But right after key generation Little
Snitch informed him that GPG Tools, i suppose GPG Keychain in that
particular case, tried to connect to an external server. Not a fact
to build trust. ;) So why is there a need to connect to a server at
all? Best regards Ralf</p></div>rpktag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/349995692014-10-26T15:06:46Z2014-10-26T15:06:50ZGPG Tools tries to connect to a server right after key generation<div><p>I am curious as to why this is happening. Maybe a staff member
could chime it on this?</p></div>Naganu Nanutag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/349995692014-10-26T17:40:11Z2014-10-26T17:40:11ZGPG Tools tries to connect to a server right after key generation<div><p>Hi rpk,</p>
<p>could you please download and install our latest <a href=
"https://releases.gpgtools.org/nightlies/GPG%20Suite-latest.dmg">nightly
build</a> and see if the problem persists.</p>
<p>You can find sig and SHA1 on the GPGTools <a href=
"https://releases.gpgtools.org/nightlies/">Nightlies page</a>.</p>
<p>I tried to reproduce the described behavior but was unable to do
so. I opened GPG Keychain, created a new key without ticking the
"upload pub key" option. GPG Keychain did not connect to any key
server after or during key creation.</p>
<p>All the best, steve</p>

tell him to try the suggested steps as soon as he's back. I will
get back to you afterwards. Best regards Ralf</p></div>rpktag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/349995692014-10-27T15:45:04Z2014-10-27T15:45:04ZGPG Tools tries to connect to a server right after key generation<div><p>Ralf, perfect. Just send an update once you've tested this.</p></div>Steve
