Security Configuration Manager Powertoy = an Orcas Feature

A few months ago I wrote a blog post showing the Security Configuration Manager Powertoy. https://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2006/06/22/643027.aspx. This powertoy allows you to see standard security configurations, provision your device, see the security configuration on your device, sign a file, etc.

I was glad to see the entry by Daniel Moth showing some of the new VS features in Orcas (https://www.danielmoth.com/Blog/2007/03/visual-studio-for-devices-features-in.html). One of them is the security configuration manager integrated into Visual Studio. Plain Goodness!

  Your salvation is VmWare Workstation...we install different dev tools on different VMs so we have nice clean environments.

  where is the security configuration manager integrated into Visual Studio? I don't see it in vs2005! following the given link, I found VS Orcas on that page. So this security conf manager was only available in the beta version of vs05?

  I need to install a certificate to the priv store on several devices, over the air. My software will also be signed with this certificate. Anyone know how this can be done? Don't really want to have to get all the devices in to install the cert manually with orcas for each device. Thanks, Andrew
