ocsp support

hello,

is anywhere a list of all applications supporting OCSP checking on various
platforms such as Vista/2008/7/R2 etc.? Is this a generic feature revocation
checking on the systems which is by default used for all revocation checking
or is that dependent on each application asking for this type of check?

thank you very much.

Hi Ondrej,

Thank you for your post.

Regarding the question 1, I am afraid to say we don't have an application
list for supporting OCSP checking on various platforms. Thank you for your
understanding.

Regarding the question 2, when an application calls CryptoAPI 2.0 to verify
a certificate that specifies locations to Online Responders, it search the
local CryptoAPI 2.0 in-memory and disk caches to find a cached OCSP
response. If no acceptable cached response can be found, a request will be
sent.

yes, thank you for the info. it was quite definitive I didn't feel like
answer was necessary. so thank you.

as I understand it, Vista always tries to use OCSP (if possible) regardles
of application asking for the revocation status.

thank you very much.
