Hi,
Here is a weird request and i cannot find an answer to this.
I have three client companies that will connect to my web servers via
internet
and each client has several computers and users.
{the usual thing to do is give a certificat by user that accesses the
web server, but my boss want something else ?! %-(
I am asked to have one certificate by client (with multiple users),
that would mean that we send a certificate by client and he installs
it on several computers at its office, only those computers with
certificate installed would then be able to connect to our web servers
with subsequent authentication at user level.
My question is: is this possible ? and if so,which types of
certificates would be involved? (ps: I Do know this is not the way to
do it! )

Thanks in advance

Bruno
