Greetings,

Environment: Single forest, single domain, 3 DC's, DC1 holds all FSMO rolls, all DC's GC's, BIND DNS. All DCs w2k3 SP1, FFL/DFL are w2k3.

We are investigating, in the lab, migrating some Java apps to use AD for auth (using the Java LDAP libraries that support SSL).

We do not currently run a CA.

Can i install a stand alone CA, request a cert and install it on the DCs? Or does it need to be an Ent. CA?

Also, if using 3rd party certs do i need one for *each* DC? I'm fairly certain that the answer is "yes" .. just checking.

Also also, if anyone has figured out a way to use OpennSSL to generate a proper self-sgned cert for a DC i'd love to hear it (i've used these for IIS following http://eal.us/blog/_archives/2003/6/2/25109.html ).

tia,

john
