If this is such easy (I did not even thaught about such a solution yet), I cannot understand why we fight with this "signing" issue. Isn't it possible for Citrix to sign these community drivers too? Is this has any legal/performance/security issues (assuming citrix drivers are nearly the same as the community ones)? > > Paul > >>> >>> Paul >>> >>>> Thx. >>>> >>>> -- >>>> >>>> >>>> Éliás Tamás >>>> Thomas Elias >>>> >>>> ETIT[nwpro] KFT, Ügyvezető-Hálózatbiztonsági specialista >>>> ETIT[nwpro] Ltd, General Manager-Network security specialist >>>> >>>> Tel.
