Hi All,

  Trying to install a windows 2003 server as a CA server.During the
process,by default it allows me to install it has a standalone CA server
instead of a enterprise CA server.The purpose of the CA server is to provide
digital certificates for the Lab Cisco IOS router/ASA.I am kind of
understanding(I may be totally wrong,kindly correct me) that the CA server
to be installed as enterprise CA server instead of stand alone CA server to
acheive the above functionality.

Considering the requirement of the enterprise CA server is valid,I kind of
understood that,in order to make the windows 2003 server as the enterprise
CA server,active directory is required and also the account to be the member
of the enterprise admin group.So when proceeded to install the ADS,the
system allows me to install the ADAM(Active directory application mode) and
Identity Management for Unix and not the ADFS(Active directory Federation
services(ADFS).While trying to install the ADFS,it gives me an error "In
order to install this ADFS component,an SSL certificate must be installed on
the default website in IIS".

At this moment I am not sure,whether I am doing right steps to install the
CA server and would like to have your comments/suggestions in doing it.

Thanks for the help

Regards
Anantha Subramanian Natarajan
