Coolsights2000 Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 Who and what can I edit to make windows ignore the driving signing during the post installation of drivers,,I'm talking about during the runonce install part...or how can I change the machine policy to the way they work in XP..I pulled this below off the M& site.You cannot install programs with unsigned drivers in non-interactive mode in Windows Server 2003 or in Windows XPTo install a program in non-interactive mode, the driver package must have a .cat file that is digitally signed by Microsoft. Note In Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, the driver signing policy level can be set to “ignore” when you install unsigned drivers. In Windows Server 2003, the default setting for driver signing policy is “warn." The “ignore” policy setting is not available in Windows Server 2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cluberti Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 CoolSights, there is no real way around this in non-interactive mode. The setting in gpedit no longer applies to non-interactive driver installations, and thus you must approve the driver from the console or it won't install. There is no way around it, at least in 2003. If you had an XP machine in a Windows 2000 or mixed-mode 2000/2003 domain, you could still set the driver signing policy to ignore and it would apply to both interactive and non-interactive installations, but 2003 Server no longer allows this, as it is a security risk.What drivers are you attempting to install non-interactively? And have you contacted the driver manufacturer to see if they have signed drivers, or have any in the works? If you had signed drivers, your problem would be solved.
