Thread-topic: Installing Root Certificates with ARD?

Good day to all,

My AD admins created a certificate and pushed it to the Wintel clients using group policy. They have supplied me a copy. It is required for an internal SSL connection.

Without the certificate installed, when my Mac clients try to connect to the server, they are presented “View Certificate, Cancel and Continue” buttons. The short term workaround is tell them to click Continue. If they choose view, they can attempt to “Always trust…” the certificate, but they’ll be prompted for admin credentials, which most users don’t have. (Their accounts are not admin, but some users have been trusted with separate account credentials for software installations.)

Can I install this certificate using ARD, so that the users don’t have to do a thing to install it?

Thanks,

Mike
