Somebody has set up a CA solution for this company. My problem is when I go
via the web to request a certicate, there are two "things" missing.
The first thing is "Identifying Information: with names, company ect" and
the second is "type of certificate needed" in the Web request. My test setup
have those two but not the "real life" setup. In certification Authority
under PKI under Certifikate templates there were only Domain Controller and
Computer. Everytime I entered the web it came with a "no certificate
templates could be found. You don´t have permission to request a certicate
from this CA or an error occoured while accessing the Active Directory". So I
added "user" template and now it don´t prompt me for this, but still I am
missing the "Identifying Information: with names, company ect" and the second
is "type of certificate needed" in the Web request. Are there something about
security or permissions s??

Best regards
Peter

Not sure if this is your problem or not, but it could have to do with
the permissions on the cert templates themselves. These are set in a
separate mmc, called "Certificate Templates." The users you want to web
enroll will need to have Read and Enroll permissions on the template.

I think this is because the a PKI Administrator locked down the cert server.
how can I unlock it (there might be a MSBP (MS Best Practice) way ?)

It would depend how and where it's locked down. There are various places
where types of certificates can be locked out - the cert template, the
CA server, the CA server certificate, etc. It could also be something
modified in the web enrollment pages, but I'm not very familiar with
the web enrollment system. But I believe "type of certificate needed"
in the web form ties to certificate templates; if there is only one
available to you, it may not show that field. What type of cert are you
actually trying to issue? Have you tried manually creating a cert
request and submitting it to your CA to see if it'll issue a cert?
