As a rule, this behavior is not critical. In certain cases however, this can also cause problems with applications.

Establish a mapping from a user certificate to the associated computer

Assume the following scenario:

  • A user's computer is stolen or infected with malware.
  • The integrity of certificates located on the computer can no longer be guaranteed.
  • The certificates of the user(s) that were requested on this computer must be revoked.
  • However, one would like to avoid revoking all certificates of a user.
  • Thus, a connection must be established between the user's certificates and the computer on which they were requested.

If the certificates were issued by Autoenrollment requested, we can take advantage of the fact that a corresponding attribute was part of the original certificate request, and that the certificate request is stored in the certificate authority database along with the certificate.

No remote desktop logon possible from outside the Active Directory forest

Assume the following scenario:

  • You want to establish a remote desktop connection.
  • The client computer from which the connection is made is not a member of the same Active Directory forest as the target computer.
  • The connection fails with the following error message:
A user account restriction (for example, a time-of-day restriction) is preventing you from logging on. For assistance, contact your system administrator or technical support.

Electronic data exchange with the German Pension Insurance

Recently, together with the B-I-T GmbH Information and processes from Hanover worked on implementing the electronic data exchange with the statutory health insurance funds and the pension insurance from one application.
