SUMMARY
This article is a pointer to a white paper available for download. The
white paper titled "Creating Certificate Hierarchies with Microsoft
Certificate Server Version 1.0" describes how to use Microsoft Certificate
Server version 1.0 and certification authority hierarchies with Microsoft
Exchange Server version 5.5 Service Pack 1.
As noted in the Microsoft Windows NT Option Pack release notes, Microsoft
Certificate Server 1.0 does not officially support certification authority
hierarchies. However, several of the key capabilities of a certification
authority hierarchies feature do work and can reasonably be used in an
implementation with Exchange Server to achieve most of the desirable
characteristics of certification authority hierarchies.
