Summary: pubca - InitializesServerApplication not working

Initial Comment:
Hi,

The InitializesServerApplication is not working on 
WinXP and Win2000. The auther of the extension might 
not know that this property is supported under those 
platforms. check out KB 
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/303890 for infomration 
for @indows 2000. Under WindowsXP there used to be a 
problem with it (KB902400 breaks it) but hotfix 
KB922668 fix it.
The extension should support this propery on those 
platforms also.

Regrads,
-Shay Erlichmen.

The documentation for InitializesServerApplication at 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/cossdk/html/f502ba60-b2b1-4556-8f91-
22a474e60e0d.asp?frame=true#_cos_components_initializesserverapplication
states that 
it's supported as of Windows Server 2003, but the documentation for 
IProcessInitializer at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-
us/cossdk/html/7c7edeb7-5bc1-4ede-8fe4-78fc7c6bdd30.asp states Windows
2000 or later. 
Clearly they can't both be right.

The KB article linked shows 'kbwin2000sp3fix' as a keyword, so I assume
that the 
rollup that enables the feature was included in Windows 2000 SP3. Since
the rollup 
was released in August 2001 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/302845/) I
would expect 
that the feature was present in Windows XP RTM although this should be
tested.

To support this on Windows 2000 and later, change '502' to '500' for the 
InitializesServerApplication property in pdlComponentProperties in 
src\ca\pubca\pcasched\cpiasmsched.cpp (line 125 in 2.0.4701.0). I'm not
sure what 
will happen if this is run on a platform which doesn't support the
feature, however - 
presumably ICatalogObject::put_Value will return an error? If this does
happen, the 
installation will probably roll back. This may well be the right thing to
do, though.
