Silly question, but you don’t have ANY internet connection in the driver development site at all!?!? Wow, that must make it really difficult to use WinDbg since you need an internet connection to keep the symbols updated and without updated symbols for WinDbg to use, stack dumps and quite a bit of WinDbg becomes near to unusable. Of course that assumes you use WinDbg at your driver development site, if not then consider signing the drivers where you use WinDbg, which probably does have an internet connection.

Subject: RE:[ntdev] Signing device drivers without internet connection
Since we do not have internet connection in the driver development site, are there any time stamp server devices that we can install in the site, that
a) Will not need to be connected to the internet, and:
b) Will allow to add trusted time stamps to driver packages, in order to allow us to use the driver on Windows 7 (64 bits), even after the code signing certificate expires.
If such time stamp server devices exist, for how long do they work before becoming useless (i.e. every how many years do we need to buy a new server)? what is the estimated cost of such a device?
If this is not possible, which files need to be taken to an internet machine in order to add the time stamps?
Thanks,
Itai
