C# ClickOnce in AD domain needs certificate

Michel [mjbohn] asked:

Open original thread
Hi all
I'd like to distribute applications via clickonce. As you might guess, this is not a problem at all.
But in the intranet of the company where these apps should be deployed, all PC stuff, users, rights and policies
are handled by ActiveDirectory.
Due to some strict policy, users can install software only -even from internal servers- if they are signed with a cert.
That's still not the prob. If I had a cert, I'd know how to use it with VS.

The problem starts with the admin of the PDC. He's the one who has to create the cert(s) for me.
And unfortunately it's up to me to get this done because the admin has not a clue.

Asking Google leads to lots of solutions for public servers using a CA.

I need a cert from an intranet PDC which is suitable to be imported at VS for my clickonce deploy.

Just a link to some helpful manual would be great.

tnx
Michel
