# DC Template

## AppConfig:ActiveDirectory:<code class="expression">page.vars.cert\_template</code>:Enabled

*Linux: AppConfig\_\_ActiveDirectory\_\_*<code class="expression">page.vars.cert\_template</code>*\_\_Enabled*

**Value:** *true* or *false* (default)

**Description:** This setting enables the certificate template `KerberosAuthentication` targeted at Domain Controllers.

## AppConfig:ActiveDirectory:<code class="expression">page.vars.cert\_template</code>:TemplateName

*Linux: AppConfig\_\_ActiveDirectory\_\_*<code class="expression">page.vars.cert\_template</code>*\_\_TemplateName*

**Value:** Certificate template name

**Description:** This setting allows you to choose a custom template name for this certificate template. It is displayed when you manually enroll a certificate of that template. For maximum compatibility, choose a name with only alphanumeric characters and no blanks.

## AppConfig:ActiveDirectory:<code class="expression">page.vars.cert\_template</code>:GroupFilter

*Linux: AppConfig\_\_ActiveDirectory\_\_*<code class="expression">page.vars.cert\_template</code>*\_\_GroupFilter*

**Value:** Comma-separated list of AD groups specified by their SID

**Description:** This setting limits which Active Directory group members are allowed to enroll certificates for this certificate template. If configured, it overrides the general setting [AppConfig:ActiveDirectory:GroupFilter](#appconfig-activedirectory-groupfilter).

## AppConfig:ActiveDirectory:<code class="expression">page.vars.cert\_template</code>:Ksps

*Linux: AppConfig\_\_ActiveDirectory\_\_*<code class="expression">page.vars.cert\_template</code>*\_\_Ksps*

**Value:** Semicolon-separated list of CSPs/KSPs allowed for key generation

**Description:** You can define the key storage providers in which the certificates private key might be created in. If no value is specified, all KSPs are allowed to be used, and the client decides which KSP suites best. Valid values include:

* **Microsoft Platform Crypto Provider** - Stores the private key in the device's TPM.
* **Microsoft Passport Key Storage Provider**
* **Microsoft Software Key Storage Provider** - Stores the private key on the hard drive, secured with the machine key.
* **Microsoft Smart Card Key Storage Provider** - Stores the private key on a smart card.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.scepman.com/scepman-configuration/application-settings/active-directory/dc-template.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
