hi nacho,

1.- self-signed certificate appropriate work in business environment? (about 40 remote users) 've been reading articles , many mentions need have ca certifiacte..for scenario ..what difference? ca certificates work same self-signed?

self-signed certificate meant used technical evaluation , testing purposes. not recommended use self-signed certificates in production environment.

you don’t need ca certificate, need internal ca can issue certificates clients.

self-signed certificates not trusted other entities default; internal ca, certificates trusted within enterprise since root ca certificate trusted on clients.

2.- period last year..what happen certificated due??..will have replace cert , redistribute again on 40 users? wihat ca? same?

you need renew , distribute them manually before expire.

if have ca, there auto-enrollment feature enables client automatically enroll , renew certificates.

3.- how secure connection between users , network? in risk attacked hacker using self-signed???

not easier hacked, self-signed certificates not trusted other machines.

more information you:

(i need prevent sleeping while plugged in - it's set 1 hour) thanks! allen crist i found site: http://gpsearch.azurewebsites.net/#7916 i able add policy to hkey_local_machine\software\policies\microsoft\power using specs found on site. looks solved issue. i'll report if didn't. thanks! allen crist ...
