Title: RE: [ActiveDir] Active Directory Cookbook

Dan,

 

What are the topics in PKI architecture you want to understand?

What issue are you trying to solve using PKI in your organization?

What are the specific needs in your organization and what Windows 200x services do you want to deploy to meet those needs?

 

Here are a couple of basic topics to think about.

 

Outsourcing verses In-house operations. 

Self-signed CA verse Commercial.  Look to mix here, and select a vendor to partner with for Public website.

Automated Enrollment, verses manual enrollment.  Identity proof.

Reporting.  (There is a lack of reporting tools available for reporting on PKI information, have to create custom reports.)

Monitoring CRL availability, and CA Server availability.

Windows 200x feature that use PKI.

Public / Private use of PKI

Hardware to support more advanced operations.

Roaming profiles, verses Local Profiles.  Certificates are stored in the User profile.  Good idea for the user to be able to access their profile from any Wintel box.

How to troubleshoot the service and the subordinate applications.

How to maintain the service.

 

That's all I can think of at 1am.

 

Todd Myrick

While not a cookbook per se, I have found this link useful in my understanding of PKI:

Robbie,

I haven't gotten my copy of your book yet, I know :-(, I waited until just recently to order it.  I looked at the table of contents but did not see any thing about Certificate Services, is it there and I just missed it??

If it is not in your book, as the "Master of Cookbooks" can you suggest a good source for learning Certificate Services structure and installing guide.

I am trying to get my head around Certificate Service in order to answer some structure questions.
