CMS4 Help on User Enrollment

Certificate Management System provides forms that support three kinds of user enrollment: manual (based on explicit approval by someone who verifies the user's identity), directory-based enrollment (based on user information in an LDAP directory), and directory- and PIN-based enrollment (based on user information and an identifying PIN number in a directory). For this WBT we will perform the first two; manual and directory-based enrollment.

The following interaction provides a general overview of the enrollment process to include both the manual and the directory-based form.  Once you've looked at it and understand the overall process, proceed to the actual enrollment exercises.
