New Post: Use a real certificate (from CA)

Hi HiDoo,

Since my clients trust the server through my SSL certificate on port 8531, I really don't understand why they don't trust that same server with the code signing certificate?
Please could you explain me?

The certificate for SSL is a server cert, used to identified a computer. Packages needs to be sign with a code signing certificate. To be trusted, the code signing certificate must be present in the "Trusted Publisher" store. And the certificate of the Root Authority that have issued the code signing cert, must be present in the "Root Certificate authorities" store.

Why it's not necessary to deploy a certificate on my client to install Windows updates through 8531 whereas it is for WPP?

Microsoft updates are digitally signed, and their certificates are already in the good stores.
