RE: Cert Attributes in CERTDIST

Jim:

I must agree with many of the points that Dave Kemp made. Is it worth putting multiple copies of the same certificate into the Directory? This can lean to inconsistincies.

Maybe it would be better to follow the PKIX LDAP Schema and add an S/MIME-specific attribute too the directory entry. The binding you seek could be achieved by putting a reference to a specific certificate that is available in the userCertificate attribute inside the S/MIME-specific attribute.

Thoughts?
