View Full Version : Question on Certificate Server


X
I am running Win2K SP4 Server Edition. Is there a way to change the default
validity period when issuing a certificate? By default, all
certs issued have a 1 year expiration period. I'd like to be able to
selectively change that value when processing a Certificate Request.

Thanks.

Never mind, I think I have found the answer.

It looks like it could be changed according to this article but only as a
global value
