We are having NT 4.0 Domain and need to introduce Microsoft CA. Actually only
the Domain Controllers are still being NT, all other systems are W2k3, W2K,
or XP.

Is it possible or advisable to introduce a stand-alone "Microsoft
CA" on one of the W2K3 member server, or it has to be on the NT Domain
controller.

Thanks,

Topokin,

You will not be able to do an AD Integrated CA. You will have to stick with
the stand-alone types.

Ryan,

Thanks for the feedback. It is clear that I will not be able to do any AD
integrated CA since I do not have AD in the first place. But will the
stand-alone CA on W2K3-MemberServer work in an NT-Domain.

Thanks,
topokin

Topokin,

Just as you would if you brought up a CA on Linux, it'll work just fine.
You'll just have to specifically request certificates manually through the
web interface.
