Notes

  • Ensure you run Windows PowerShell as an administrator. You can use the Force parameter to bypass the prompt for confirmation. To see parameters, run the following command: Install-AdcsEnrollmentPolicyWebService -?

  • You can get the CA configuration, which is the computer name and CA name by running certutil without any parameters. You can see the certificate SSL certificate thumbprints assigned to the local computer by running the following commands:

    • cd cert:\LocalMachine\My
    • dir | format-list
