Hi,
We have upgraded the HP Device Manager from 5.0 to 5.0SP1 and now we cannot shadow client device. We get the error "Missing certificate file." I have seen a post about this same problem and the resolution was to regenerate the cert.
We don't recall generating a certificate on the older versions of the device manager so my question is how do I generate one to deploy and what type of cert is needed.
any help or tips is very much appreciated.
Thanks
Justin
