SUMMARY

A certificate mapping can only be done to security principals (user accounts) and does not support groups or aliases in the Windows 2000 Active Directory.

MORE INFORMATION

Certificate mapping is used by security packages to log on to the corresponding user account and build a token, which is later presented for access to resources.
