Hi Team.
We have a Win2k8 R2 domain, that only has (2) Domain Controllers, and they each have a set of Certificates that were issued by an Enterprise level CA. The certs expire really soon, and I was poking around in the Certificates Snap-in, and I can see the certs listed in:
Certs > Server Authentication.
The cert functionality is defined as:
- - ensures the identity of a remote computer
- - proves your identity to a remote computer
However, any action I take to try and renew or request the certificate gives me:
"Enrollment Error: the request contains no certificate template information"
so my questions:
- how do I properly go about getting a new cert for this system, meaning:
- do I renew w/ same key
- do I request cert w/ same key
- start over with a new key
Ultimately, I want to replace these certs and minimize any interruptions to authentication.
Am i getting these errors because of permissions? Do I need to be using certreq and certutil tools to accomplish these tasks?
Thanks
