Verify Certificate warning when imaging from JDS via netboot

[ImAMacGuy]

I'm testing out imaging a new computer from our JDS server via Netboot. When I go through and select everything, I get a popup stating

"The certificate for this WebDAV server was signed by an unknown certifying authority. You might be connecting to a WebDAV server that is pretending to be "jds.server.com", which could put your confidential information at risk. Would you like to connect to the WebDAV server anyway? The buttons are Show Cert, Cancel and Continue

Is there way around that popup?

The only way around it I know of is to open Safari when setting up the NetBoot and trusting the certificate. So when building the NBI, open Safari, navigate to https://<your jds url> and click on Show Certificate and then Trust Always. The cert needs to be in the keychain of the NBI so that you can get around those errors.

Awesome! Thank you! I will make sure to add that to my workflow when I create new NBIs.

When we browser to our JDS servers, there is no web page to connect to and therefore we cannot trust the certificate.

Are we missing some configuration on the JDS instances?

Thanks,
