how to convert an Exchange type Certificate Authority into a regular one ?
Hello All, I have recycled a server which was running Exchange2007 into DC and Certificate Authority. The CA remains exchange type and doesn't allow me to issue web browser certificates. How can I do ? Is there a way to convert the current CA into a regular CA or should I reinstall completely the Operating System ? Thank for your help.

What do you mean "CA remains exchange type"? -- Ed Crowley MVP "There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems." .

Thanks for help. On the WebUI of a regular CA, you have to specify for what the key is intented for. you have then three options : -Exchange -Signature -Both On my CA I've only Exchange and no other choices. That's my I'm saying the CA is an Exchange type. Thanks.

You should post your question to an appropriate Windows Server forum. Probably the Security one is most appropriate. -- Ed Crowley MVP "There are seldom good technological solutions to behavioral problems." .
