Hi,
Just getting back to this...
Is it possible to generate a new certificate for the NT CA?
That's actually going to be the simplest solution, since it doesn't require
any new infrastructure and the impact on users will be exactly the same as
if I built a new CA. The impact being that all existing, valid, certificate
holders will need new certificates.
Soon'ish
Craig
