Enrolling Extranet Users

Acme wants its new, certificate-enabled extranet applications to be available to
contract workers, suppliers, employees, and others who routinely access parts of
the company's internal network. In general, this can be achieved by using Kerberos
or other non-PKI security systems as the authentication mechanism for requesting
a certificate. To authenticate them for the purposes of PKI enrollment, Acme uses a
third-party authentication module from that takes advantage of its existing
Kerberos system without disturbing its current functions.
