| Newbie Rep Power: 2 ![]() | Joining Vista into an Existing SmartCard Domain I have an existing Scard domain that host several XP and 2k boxes, using nothing but the tools that are built in 2k3 Server. I've added a Vista box to the domain, and regardless of what type of card I use, Vista reports no valid certs on the card. Now, with all the Scard changes in Vista, I expected some road bumps. But I am completely lost as to why the certificates aren't valid. And how to work around it. I've searched for days on in, and everything on the net just kind of points to each other. Maybe it's just not sinking in, as I'm not the most experienced with Scard deployment. But I was hoping for either a step by step tutorial, or at least a documentation that explains what is needed(middleware? ) to add a Vista box to an existing Scard environment. The cards I'm using are said to work, some of which required drivers, but all of them return invalid as per Vista. Our main cards are the Gemalto.net and Oberthur Cosmo Dual. Any info is definitely appreciated... |

| Newbie Rep Power: 2 ![]() | Re: Joining Vista into an Existing SmartCard Domain Thank you for your suggestions... Believe it or not, a college and I managed to scrape our way through not but 20 minutes ago... Hurray!!! LOL... We ended running the patch from this KB article on our SC DC... How to use Certificate Services Web enrollment pages together with Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 We then used the web interface to make the Vista box to retrieve the enrollment cert to make it an enrollment station. Then after realizing that we were not able to use the web interface to actually request and write the logon cert to the card, we finally figured out that with Vista, you're suppose to use the Cert manager instead. Like I mentioned, I'm pretty green with Scards. And there really isn't much info out there that specifically explains what is needed to add a Vista box to your current environment. Just allot of whitepapers about what changed, overviews of the entire infrastructure and roll out. Next up, rolling out a 2k8 environment... |
