Comment 2 for bug 2023597

Hi Lucas,

Thanks for clarifying about the correct process around stable releases.

As far as I can tell there is no easy way to enable/configure certificate auto enrollment in Jammy as is. So this feature would allow users to easily configure client machines to auto enroll for certificates from Active Directory Certificate Services. I believe Landscape and ADsys are working on a similar feature for future LTS releases and certificate auto-enrollment is currently possible in Jammy via scripting with ADsys (I'm not sure exactly how though). But this feature would bring easily configurable client certificate auto enrollment to Jammy instead of needing to figure out how to script it. Hope that adds a bit more context.

In terms of analysis of the upstream patch set needed to support this feature and the maintainability, I've never done anything like that before. I guess there's no time like the present to learn though. Let me do some research on what this would involve and if I have the skills/knowledge to help.

Cheers
