Problem digitally signing .rdp files

[Guest Saucer Man]

I purchased a cert to digitally sign my .rdp files. We are using RemoteAPP

and we were getting these warnings...

 

 

Title Bar: Open File - Security Warning

Message: The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you want

to run

this software?

Name: u:\folder\program.exe

Publisher: Unknown Publisher

Type: Application

From: u:\folder\program.exe

 

Run button Cancel button

 

This file does not have a valid digital signature that verifies its

publisher. You should only run software from publishers you trust.

How can I decide what software to run?

 

 

I installed the Cert and configured RemoteAPP to digitally sign the .rdp

files per another thread. Now I get an error when trying to launch the .rdp

file. It is...

 

 

This RDP File is corrupted. The remote connection cannot be started.

 

 

How can I correct this?

Thanks!

Re: Problem digitally signing .rdp files

 

I'm sorry, I don't know what caused this.

But I remember one single poster here a couple of months ago

claiming that digitally signing rdp files created corrupted rdp

files. I've Googled, but can't find the post anymore, but am sure

about the content. A lot of people *are* signing rdp files

successfully, so it can't be a general bug.

If I were you, I'd call Microsoft support.

Re: Problem digitally signing .rdp files

 

Apparently there really was some corruption in the .rdp files. After

re-creating the .rdp files, the error went away. However, the original

problem still exists. So I am going back to the thread titled 'How do you

prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?' Thanks.
