IAS Certificate

[marius.hole]

Hello

I've installed a 2k3 enterprise server with sp1 and all of the latest security patches.

This server will be the root certificate server of the domain, and I’ve installed iis with asp, enterprise root ca with web enrollment and ias.

I’ve configured the domain gpo with auto enrollment for computers and users and authorized ias in ad.

The domain controllers have received certificates and the users (that is member of the auto enrollment group) have received certificates.

Now the problem:

IAS have not received certificate.

The strange thing about this is: I’ve already installed the servers on a test net before I installed the certificate server on the network. And everything work out just fine on the clean test-net. Only problem I had on the test-net was the backup/secondary ias did not receive certificate.

Because of a time-limit I had no time to do more research on this.

Update: I've restarted the service, and the main ias got the certificate. But still got problems with the backup ias receiving certificate.

I would be ever grateful for any answer that would lead to a solution to this problem

Note:

Yes. I know its best practice to run the root ca offline. So now you don’t have to mention it.
