Has anyone figured out how to handled the driver sign warning/prompt from

Thx

Interesting approach. I do not have time to investigate this atm, but
this seems to be a nice way to do this. Is there a way to add
certificates without using group policies? I'd like to be able to do
this without installing AD.

If anyone has a way to turn of Cert checking/ add the extra openvpn cert
then I guess we got what is needed to create a new entry in the Silent
installers wiki :)
