Installing PlanetPress® Connect on Machines without Internet Access

In order to install PlanetPress® Connect it is necessary for the GoDaddy Root Certificate Authority to

be installed (G2 Certificate) on the host machine and for this to be verified online. When a machine

hosting the installation does not have access to the Internet, the installation will fail because the

verification cannot be performed. To solve this problem you must first ensure that all Windows

updates have been installed on the host machine. You then need to complete the following steps:

1. Go to https://certs.godaddy.com/repository and download the following two certificates to

copy to the offline machine:

 GoDaddy Class 2 Certification Authority Root Certificate - G2 - the file is gdroot-g2.crt

 GoDaddy Secure Server Certificate (Intermediate Certificate) - G2 - the file is gdig2.crt

2. Install the certificates: Right mouse click -> Install Certificate, and follow the steps through

the subsequent wizard.

3. Now copy the PlanetPress® Connect installer to the offline machine and start the installation

as normal
