Hi Randy,

I am embedding a server within an instrument.  In most cases the server is deployed on an isolated network, so I want the server to work out of the box with a self-signed server certificate, and configured to AutoAcceptUntrustedCertificates.  Most users will not make an effort to secure the system, but I want to allow the user to apply a secure deployment where a GDS is used to push a signed server certificate, trusted issuer certificates, trusted client certificates, etc.  I am using the 1.5.374.54 NuGet packages, so the methods to support a GDS are already in place.  What is the best way to have a user turn off AutoAcceptUntrustedCertificates (set it to false) if they use a GDS to secure the solution?  Is there an easy way to determine if the server has been configured via a GDS, and therefore should disable AutoAcceptUntrustedCertificates?

If the server has a self signed certificate is not configured by a GDS.

If there is a CA issued certificate then is probably from GDS.
