    Hi,

    Without using auto-enrollment, does the CryptoAPI support
    renewing certificates?

    An MSDN example shows how to generate a certificate
    request using the following functions: CryptEncodeObject
    (), CryptAcquireContext(), CryptExportPublicKeyInfo() and
    CryptSignAndEncodeCertificate(). I am not sure if this is
    the same procedure for renewing certs.

    Also, this generates the request, but how is the cert sent
    to the server, validated by the server and returned back
    to the user?

    Thanks,
    Matthew.
