Re: http://localhost/certsrv doesn't work

Hello Brian

Not beating a dead horse at all Brian. My take on this is that for example public.security and public.windows.server.security or public.vista.security and etc all have their respective subjects . I believe that for example public.security is not for server based systems but for the average computer user using ( not a server based ) computer with security concerns or issues. The server based security questions\issues should not be addressed here but in the windows.server.security newsgroups as should the vista.security be addressed in the vista.security newsgroup and on and on groups .
Maybe I am looking at this wrong but I feel that it should be like the above. I am not a young person and the reasoning on this subject on this matter which we are now discussing has always led me to this conclusion.
The rest of my explanation on how I feel on this subject is in the previous posts as per above

And to answer your question directly the topics that belong in any security newsgroup as per any OP's OS
is how they perceive security with what can be done in\with their respective system to harden it .

Sorry to beat a dead horse, but just what topics do you think belong in this newsgroup.
Not challenging you. Just really want to know your take on it.

Hello Paul

Regardless that Brian wrote the book on Microsoft Certificate Services I was always taught since being actively participating in these MS newsgroups since 1994 and being one of the first MSN-MHM persons
that when an OP asks and has an issue it is best to answer it in their respective newsgroup. Maybe the OP gains help here but it would also help other OP's with the same or similar issue when posted to the appropriate newsgroup. This issue belongs with the Server (03\08) newsgroup . I see to this every single day and even today as a matter of fact where MVP's are directing posters to their respective newsgroup when the said poster posts in the wrong one. Even though they (MVP's ) know the answer and are capable to answer .
For me that is the reason for different newsgroups . If this is the thought of some as per our conversation then all these different groups should not exist and this MS sever then can get along with only a few groups vs. as many as today. The above was once explained to me by John Eddy and then it made sense to me.

Sorry about the difference of opinion but this is my side of the above.

Thanks Paul

You're wrong here. Brian wrote the books on Microsoft Certificate Services
(both for Server 2003 and for Server 2008) so regardless of your feelings
about where the question should or should not have been asked, there is
nobody better to answer his question than Brian.
