Parameters
- chain
Remarks
Each UA application may have a list of trusted certificates that is different from
all other UA applications that may be running on the same machine. As a result, the
certificate validator cannot rely completely on the Windows certificate store and
user or machine specific CTLs (certificate trust lists).
The validator constructs the trust chain for the certificate and follows the chain
until it finds a certification that is in the application trust list. Non-fatal trust
chain errors (i.e. certificate expired) are ignored if the certificate is in the
application trust list.
If no certificate in the chain is trusted then the validator will still accept the
certification if there are no trust chain errors.
The validator may be configured to ignore the application trust list and/or trust chain.
