certificate validity in Certificates MMC snap-in |
|
|
Hello,
I have tried it, but the certificates.MMC snap-in does not check for
revocation information nor for the fact the root CA certificate have to be
in "trusted root"s.
how to make the snap-in do the work or is there a simple utility that would
provide me with exact error codes for the certification validity checks?

The MMC consoles do not invoke the calls to check revocation on a |
certificate. This is left up to the application that is validating the
certificate.
The easiest way is to use a computer running Windows XP or Windows
Server 2003 with the Administration Pack installed. You can then run:
certutil -verify -urlfetch <certificateFile.cer>
Just export the certificate from the MMC to a base64 or der format file.
