directory services certificate

Updated March 29, 2016
asked on March 29, 2016

What are the requirements for requesting a certificate for Directory Services to use.

Can a wild card certificate for the domain be utilized or does it need to be specific to the server hosting Directory Services ? Does it need to be fully qualified ?

Thanks

It can be a wildcard certificate. If you're only using it inside the organization and not over the internet, it can even be self-signed (or generated by an internal certificate authority) and pushed out to the other machines on the domain through group policies.

If it is accessed over the internet then it needs to be fully qualified with the url name in it ?

It can still be a wildcard certificate. It just can't be self-signed or generated by an internal authority since any machine has to be able to validate it.
