Vista does not detect CA Server on local network
Hello, I have a piece of code ICertConfig->->Reset(0, &nCount); This is build on windows Vista as well as Windows XP. I am using microsoft visual studio 6.0 Professional edition and Windows Platform SDK 2000 to build for both Vista and WinXP. But in windows Vista I am not able to get correct results as my code ICertConfig->->Reset(0, &nCount); Returns success but outparam nCount is 0 even there is one CA Server present in local network so the call to ICertConfig->GetConfig(CC_FIRSTCONFIG, &bstrConfig); fails. This, in windows XP gives correct results(nCount = 1) and recognises the CA server in the same domain as that of windows Vista. My domain server(also the CA server) , the XP machine, and the Vista machine are all in the same domain. Also, tried using windows Vista platform SDK to build the project, but same failure. Can you please help me on this ? Is there something specific for windows Vista ? ( I am logged in as an administrator.). Kindly reply me as this is very urgent for me or redirst this question to the concerned person who is capable of answering. Thanks, manisha

Is you application running as Adminstrator ? Just because you are logged in as administrator does not mean you process you develope are running as admin. Please check the tread on UAC

I think he said he's logged as Administrator, maybe he needs to run the application as administrator as you mentioned, JAYTF.

Hi, Even i have run my application as an administrator, but the results are same. And the attached API Sheet also doesnot contain any info about ICertConfig Interface. Regards, - manisha
