Probably a network problem. The only way what you report can happen is
if `fetch -q http://portsnap.daemonology.net/pub.key` fails to fetch
anything -- if the key it downloads is wrong, portsnap will complain
about the hash instead.
Try again; if it still doesn't work, try using nslookup and traceroute
to identify the problem.
