Private Key to Workstation

Novell Cool Solutions: Question & Answer

Posted: 29 Jul 2004

Q:
In case the private key is exchanged with the workstation, where is it stored?

A:
The key is never exchanged with the workstation. For SecretStore, the NICI foundation is used and the security is the same as all other NICI systems. With the attribute store, nothing needs to be passed to the server.
