i found that what ADSI shows is totally identical to what Site and Service shows,

but they are not identical to what PKIview -> manager AD containers shows

in my company AD, i see KRA have 5 objects left, but manager AD containers shows nothing

thank you

    PKIView shows DS entry content, not actual entries. If you see no entries in KRA tab in PKIView.msc and see entries in DS KRA container, this means that all records in Active Directory are empty. PKIView.msc looks only for content in userCertificates attribute of every record in this container. If you examine records in Sites and Services snap-in, you will find that userCertificates attribute is empty/not set. This means that you can safely remove these entries from Active Directory.
