backup templates

[Guest Gunna]

I thnik the answer is going to be no but thought i'd ask. Anyway to backup

my tempates only to bring from production into a test lab? I have load of

custom template i dont want to have to manually recreate if necessary. If

the answer is no is there at leat a way to maybe export the settings for each

certificate so I can refrence a spreadsheet when creating them so i dont have

to go from screen to screen? Maybe export them using an LDAP browser maybe?

 

Thanks.

The export and import of certificate template is not supported between

forests.

This is a direct quote from the product group received during a recent

engagement due to forest-specific information that cannot be read between

forests.
