Windows 7 computer certificate and Windows 2008 CA no templates available
Hi, I am trying to install a computer certificate to use with an IPSEC VPN on my Windows 7 laptop.
I have an Enterprise CA installed on a Windows 2008 server. The laptop is not part of the domain, so I VPN in and open up the computer cert mmc on my laptop.
I VPN in then open the web page to the certsrv. I do a cert request but in the drop down box there is no computer certificate.
I then tried a custom request from the Personal store an again there are no templates from which to chose a comp cert from. I only have "No template (CNG) or No template (Legacy)
What am i missing here? I have been trying to install a comp cert all week but can't.
Any help would be appreciated

Hi NeilBarker,
Regarding the Windows 2008 CA issue, I suggest you create a new thread in Windows Server 2008 forum. To do this, you will get an accurate and

response. Please understand that we only discuss Windows 7 network issues in this forum.
Thus, we are not the best resource for this issue. Thank you for your understanding.
