Hi,

I haven't gotten this working, but I think that I had a mis-conception.
It looks like the sample that I mentioned (CrlCheck) is meant to be run
on the actual machine where Certificate Server is running, rather than
on a machine that is separate.

So, it appears that I might not be able to use the CCertAdmin object
(certadm.dll).

Is this correct?

If so, how else can I do the types of things that are in this program,
e.g., list the CRLs in the CA store on my machine, delete/add CRLs in
the CA store on my machine, etc., programmatically?

I know that I've been able to do some of these use the CertMgr.exe
program, but I'm trying how to implement my own custom app to do some of
these things.
