Hi Andrew,
Thanks a lot for your answer.
I found the wiki page but I was wondering how reliable is  the solution
I'm not so worried with the bug of the revoked certificate, but it is good to know , 
I will store with the certificate outside for now ... 
Thanks a lot , 
Have a good WE 
Lionel

Yes, it is known to work, but do see 
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9612

Long term, what I would prefer is to store the user certificate in the
directory (as modern Windows AD versions can), rather than by signing
with PKI, but this would require development work.

Thanks,
