Tip #4. Small Business Server 2000 Driver Signatures

Small Business Server 2000 checks for digital signatures on driver files to help maintain system integrity. During the installation or update of a driver, if there is no matching signature file, Small Business Server 2000 displays a "Digital Signature not Found" box.

To expedite release of new products, drivers may be shipped by HP without signature files. All Small Business Server 2000 drivers provided by Hewlett-Packard are submitted to Microsoft for certification testing . Upon completion of testing, Microsoft produces signature files. HP then posts the revised driver package at http://www.hp.com/.

If a signature warning is displayed during installation of a driver, you may override the warning. We recommend that you check the HP Website for the latest driver package. If available install new driver.

You can elect to have Small Business Server 2000 ignore signatures. Right-click My Computer; select Properties, Hardware, then Driver Signing. This is helpful if you are setting up multiple systems.

Digital signatures are a powerful way to ensure system integrity as you add drivers -- whether provided by Hewlett-Packard or others -- to your system.
