Nicholas Fagerlund commented on an issue   Re: Puppet module tool on windows cannot connect to the forge Okay, thank you for clearing that up! I think I've got it now; changed the text to the following: This can occur when you run the `puppet module` subcommand on newly provisioned Windows nodes. The Puppet Forge uses an SSL certificate signed by the GeoTrust Global CA certificate. Newly provisioned Windows nodes may not have that CA in their root CA store yet. To resolve this and enable the `puppet module` subcommand on Windows nodes, do one of the following: Run Windows Update and fetch all available updates, then visit <https://forge.puppetlabs.com> in your web browser. The web browser will notice that the GeoTrust CA is whitelisted for automatic download, and will add it to the root CA store. Download the "GeoTrust Global CA" certificate from [GeoTrust's list of root certificates](https://www.geotrust.com/resources/root-certificates/) and manually install it by running `certutil -addstore Root GeoTrust_Global_CA.pem`. If that's all we needed, I think this ticket can be closed; reassigning to you for the decision just in case there's anything else left that I'm forgetting about.
