Thanks for the reply Ivan,

So are the following correct?:

(1) I can create a single cert for a computer and distribute it to all
users who may use that computer


(2) I can create a cert for every user and distribute it to every
computer that a user logs into.

(3) I cannot create a generic "computer cert" that authenticates the
computer and opens the port?

Thanks!

John
