How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

When a user launches a RemoteAPP program, he gets an Open File - Security
Warning. It says "The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you
want to run this software?" The dialog prompt refers to the drive letter
mapping and the .exe in question. How can I set up the terminal server so
these prompts do not happen to any user?

Thanks!

Check if this helps:

When users start a RemoteApp, they get a dialog box: "a Website wants
to start a remote connection. The publisher of this remote connection
cannot be identified."

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

We are not getting "a Website wants to start a remote connection". I don't
know if the Cert applies here. I thought it was a Group Policy referring to
trusted intranet sites that needs to be set. Am I wrong?

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

Then I would expect this message:

When users start a program, they get a "file download" dialog box,
or an error message: "Windows cannot access the specified device,
path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to
access the item."
http://ts.veranoest.net/ts_faq_user_issues.htm#IEESconfig

but you can give it a try.

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

Here is the exact message...



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?



....It doesn't mention website or file download.

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

But have you digitally signed your rdp files? Without that, you'll
not get rid of the warning.

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

That's probably the issue. How do I digitally sign these .rdp files?

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

That's done in RemoteApp Manager. You'll have to get a certificate.

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

Ok. I was asking about a Cert in another post. If I get a CERT from
GoDaddy for the TS Gateway, it should also work for digitally signing the
..rdp files correct?

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

Did you read the Step-by-Step guide? The answers to all of your
questions are there:

If you are already using an SSL certificate for terminal server or
TS Gateway connections, you can use the same certificate to sign
..rdp files. However, if users will connect to RemoteApp programs
from public or home computers, you must use either of the
following:

* A certificate from a public certification authority (CA) that
participates in the Microsoft Root Certificate Program Members
program (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=59547).

* If you are using an enterprise CA, your enterprise CA-issued
certificate must be co-signed by a public CA that participates in
the Microsoft Root Certification Program Members program.

Yes, I did read it. And it is this paragraph that is a bit confusing...

We do have users that will connect from home computers and we are purchasing
a GoDaddy CERT for the TS Gateway. GoDaddy is on the list but it is not
clear to me if because I have home computers connecting, I will need a
different CERT from that list.

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

GoDaddy is on the list, so a certifcate from them is OK for both
purposes.

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

Vera, I installed a cert and I am now digitally signing my .rdp files.
However, I am now getting an error and I can no longer connect to the
terminal server with them. I created a new thread called "Problem digitally
signing .rdp files" on 8/27. Could you offer some insight please?

Thanks.

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

OK. Now that the .rdp files are working again, we are still getting the
security warning. The .rdp file points to an .exe. This .exe is our
accounting software and it launches different .exes from within. Whenever
it launches the other .exes, these warnings prompt the user. Any ideas?

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

I saw those settings, however, the users will be connecting from home so I
didn't think group policy would affect them. Am I correct?

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

No. And I don't feel that it would be the right why to solve the
problem either. But I'm out of ideas, sorry.
I'd call support again.

Re: How do you prevent the security warning "unknown publisher" for all users?

Hi Vera,

If "Launching applications and unsafe files" is set to Disable
for the applicable security zone, then the user will receive the
message you expect. If, however, the setting is set to Prompt
then the user will receive the message that Saucer Man is
receiving.

The instructions in your FAQ are relevant. If Saucer Man
still has trouble after following them he should post back
and we can help him troubleshoot.

Thanks.
