Connect-DbaInstance - Trust server certificate for localhost DAC connections#10263
Merged

Conversation
…ections When using DedicatedAdminConnection with a localhost instance, the server name is changed to 'ADMIN:localhost' to avoid multi-IP resolution issues (#10151). However, if TLS encryption is enabled, the SQL Server certificate (issued to the FQDN, e.g., 'r9d9.pup.local') doesn't match 'localhost', causing the error 'The target principal name is incorrect' (#10254). Automatically set TrustServerCertificate=true when connecting via DAC to localhost, since the hostname mismatch is expected and acceptable in this context. Applies to both the String input path and the Server/copyContext path. (do *Connect*) Co-authored-by: Andreas Jordan <andreasjordan@users.noreply.github.com>
