Hi John,

Usually CSG clients are not part of MetaFrame domain, so cert from publisher 
should be manually exported to that client. The same thing is valid for CSG 
box. If windows clients are part of the same Active Directory, authorative 
certs will be automatically uploaded to the client at login.

Although IIS is not required for CSG (on not even recommended to be 
installed on the same box to be exact) it is the easiest to reuse certs 
requested by IIS from your Certificate Server with CSG assuming you will 
turn IIS off or use it on another IP with socket pooling disabled.

Nice thing to remember is capability of Java ICA implementation to deliver 
publishers certs automatically with Java applet - this is the case when you 
can get away with homegrown certs on Internet!
