[Guest Kyle BLake]

this is a re-post with additional questions from:

Does any know what effects it has when migrating CA's to another computer

has on domain functions? (when CA is down during movement )

 

Ie:

 

Q: users can't decrypt files since EFS uses CA. True ?

Q: users can't open email from outlook 2007 server because CA would be down

- True?

 

Q: I also understand that one can uninstall CA from their server and then

demote the server . Obviously backing everything you can up prior! THEN

DEMOTE THE DC.. THEN Re-install CA back on that server and it will become

again the active enterprise CA. True ?
