                   3. configured new gpo, link enabled ou.
              

objective:    enable user cert auto enrollment
                

problem..

1. ) enabled enhanced logging on workstations.  error message, "automatic certificate enrollment could not find certificate authorities in enterprise .  enrollment not performed:.  seems me workstation not requesting certs.


looking @ error code, denied requests due several different reasons not consistent single error.  suspect problem caused permission issue or crl validation.    i'm think reinstalling windows 2008  sub-enterprise ca.
