Hi,if you want a green bar in IE, follow this article http://blogs.technet.com/askds/archive/2009/08/14/extended-validation-support-for-websites-using-internal-certificates.aspx. Of course it will be only for internal users.Best regardsMartin Rublik

Bear in mind that the CA must be running Windows Server 2008 R2Brian

... exactly as Martin said - it will be only for internal users. what benefit do you have from such an added overhead?o.

It is needed if you are trying to educate users to only provide privacy information if the IE bar is green.If you do not do this, you have to create an exception saying that internal sites do not need the green bar.This enhancement to 2008 R2 server allows you to be consistent with your messaging to the user baseBrian

Bear in mind that the CA must be running Windows Server 2008 R2Brian are you sure that Windows Server 2008 R2 CA is required? I haven't tested this, but it seems like that the general requirement is Windows Server 2008 R2 policy editor (or Windows 7 with RSAT), because previous OS's doesn't have tab Extended Validation.http://www.sysadmins.lv

Issuance of EV certificates is only supported with R2. This was not supported in 2k8 and any resolution is a hack that is not supported <G>Brian
