Control Certificate selection


this dual ca environment 1 ca retired. dual implementation due poor original ca2003 implementation , replaced new considered ca 2008 environment. the ca2003 provisioning for certificates was turned down 30 days ago. fine except 1 "user experience" problem

the original ca2003 user certificates , new ca2008 user certificates are able be used device/user verification mechanism vpn access (juniper) "user experience" issue the pop-up being presented in the browser window when authenticating, choice of using either certificate. prior delivery of user 2008 certificate, transparent. user not asked choice of certificates. question/conundrum.

i have thought of different options , none pretty. other than:

1. manual move of ca2003 user certificate trusted people store site support/help desk staff  or 

2. changing ca2003 user template not not renew with a very short lifespan, enable ca2003 new user template and force renewal of ca2003 user certificates or

3. convoluted powershell script interrogate the personal user store certificates ca2003 certificate template , initiate a transfer trusted people folder.

is there cleaner option can consider or pursue. my initial solution a. provide awareness b. fix sr mgmt , call service desk. c. let problem disappear ca2003 user certificates expire. solution has not made friends , tasked find better mousetrap. solutions/suggestions gladly accepted

once have multiple certificates in store, can't automatically select one, hence choice prompt.

you can define old user certificate template superseded new user certificate template; force old certificate removed , replaced. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753044(v=ws.10).aspx
