Re: Setting up AD (W2K3) for SmartCard Authentication



Thanks for the response. I have read the articles, have a question.

We have smartcards issued by a third party ca, and have the root-ca's
certificate listed in the places mentioned in the articles. Our
DomainController Certificate is not from the Same CA that issued the
SmartCards Certificates. The Certificate is from our Enterprise CA. We are
currently using the DomainController template, which doesn't list SmartCard
Logon as a property.

Does the DomainController's certificate contain the SmartCard Logon
property? If so, How can I add the SmartCard Logon property to the
DomainController Template or do I need to upgrade to Enterprise Edition?

If you are looking at your own, Microsoft Enterprise CAs, you'd suggest that
you go for a longer read here:

Can someone direct me to some articles that explain how to configure AD
for
Smart Card Authentication? If read various articles and they were not
clear
as to what is required and how to implement smartcard authentication.

If this isn't the correct group, please let me know what the correct group
would be.

Thanks.
