BitLocker and recovery password in AD
Hi, We are going to move all our users to Windows Vista SP1in a shot while, and we want to use BitLocker Drive Encryption (TMP + PIN) on the two partitions on our Laptops. And of course we want to save the recovery password in AD. When we are testing by manually enabling BitLocker Drive Encryption there are no option to Save the recovery password to AD. Only USB, folder and print.How can we save the recovery password in AD, or what must be done to make it work? We are part of a world-wide enterprise so we don't have full control on our OU, but I am pretty sure that the AD schema is extended for BitLocker. How can I see if it is extended or not? Please advice. Best regards,

Hi, You can refer to the following article for detailed information about how BitLocker and TPM recovery information can be backed up in Active Directory: Configuring Active Directory to Back up Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption and Trusted Platform Module Recovery Information http://technet2.microsoft.com/WindowsVista/en/library/3dbad515-5a32-4330-ad6f-d1fb6dfcdd411033.mspx?mfr=true Hope it helps.
