=====Skip TLS check=====

When testing with self-signed certificates PowerShell cmdlets that connect to SSL/TLS services will refuse to work because they can't verify a self-signed certificate.

To get around that first execute:
<code>
add-type @"
    using System.Net;
    using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
    public class TrustAllCertsPolicy : ICertificatePolicy {
        public bool CheckValidationResult(
            ServicePoint srvPoint, X509Certificate certificate,
            WebRequest request, int certificateProblem) {
            return true;
        }
    }
"@
[System.Net.ServicePointManager]::CertificatePolicy = New-Object TrustAllCertsPolicy
</code>

And then use the desired cmdlet.
