Despite setting cert validation as ignore and false, I still get the warning message. Any ideas? thanks

This seems to be coming from urllib3. I don’t think we have much affect over it. Since it’s a warning it doesn’t affect the program’s operation. Note that there is a change in 2.4.2 (will be i nthe next tarball) and devel which might remove this usage of urllib3 if you’re using python-2.7.9+ so you may stop getting that warning once you get that upgrade.

Thanks Toshio. I have a workaround right now by removing InsecureRequestWarning in winrm. But of course long term solution would be to implement certs
