Certificate change

Hello,

We just changed our certificate, and the old one expires on January 14th, so I have a few days to work on renewing it.

I've already changed the certificate on the web server and generated a new agent. I've also configured the console to use this new certificate.

I imagine I need to redeploy the agent since it's signed with this new certificate. Isn't it possible to do this from within wapt-upgrade?
What about the certificate deployed by wapt-deploy? Will it be replaced?
I also noticed that the packages in my repository are signed with the old certificate.
Will I have to download/regenerate all the packages?

I should also mention that deployment via GPO with wapt-deploy isn't ideal for us; we have to wait until the PCs are properly connected to the network before starting the installation. This can sometimes take a very long time... doesn't wapt-deploy check if the agent is installed?

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Sincerely,

Etienne Le Lay

Hello,

I can answer your question about waptdeploy.
It does check the already installed version to determine whether or not to run the setup.
That's why there's a "--force" option to force the setup, even if the same version is already installed.
