Thanks Conor. CAPICOM basicially does what we do already with our controls.
He was talking about getting the certserver to generate the key, so that it puts the client certs into the certserver "database".
I did have a sort of brain wave. You can log onto a site via Ie onteh certserver that generated a client cert for you. I took a look at th folder, and there was a load of ASP pages, so I might have to look at the. It seems to use "CertificateAuthority.Request" which is part of a typelib or activeX control.

He may be talking about CAPICOM?I've used it in the past to sign/encrypt stuff using digital certs, dunno if it can be used to actually generate certs or not.Just thought I'd mention it, maybe it gives you another avenue to pursue.Cheers,C.

Subject: [DUG-Offtopic] Digital CertsHi All.
we have gone down the raod of investing in soem controls that generate some Digital certs for us. It all works well, EXCEPT.....our network engineer pointed out to use we cant revoke any certs because the client certs have not been generated by the CertServer that the root cert was generated on.
He then said "why nmot use the API that Microsoft supply to do" ....... however, I cant get any result or rather any HELPFUL fresults form google..
I thought we might be able to import the certs we generated, but apparently we cant.
Just wondering if anyone has seen or used this "API" that MS provide.
I assume its prob. a commandline tool rather than an API.
Thanks, Jeremy
