Hi,
I have installed Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Root CA and Subordinate CA.
Windows Vista based PCs enroll certificate or IE on Windows Vista is capable
for web enrollement.

Windows XP (SP2) based PCs do not enroll certficate or IE (7.0 or 6.0) on
Windows XP is not capable for web enrollment.

IE (7.0 or 6.0) on Windows XP di not work on SSL web site by signed Windows
Server 2008 CA

Mozilla Firefox on Windows XP (SP2) is working on SSL web site by signed
Windows Server 2008 CA

I am not sure what you are asking.
Web enrollment does typically work
First thing I do notice is that you should be using a Standalone Root CA
rather than an enterprise root CA.
You cannot take an enterprise root CA offline and there really is no sense
for a subordinate enterprise CA with an enterprise root CA.
- Do the Vista computer work for enrollment. For Vista, it is recommended to
use the Certmgr.msc console for all enroll,ment
- What about Windows XP.
Does IE work ( I do not think so, but do not have enough info to provide
you an answer)
Does certmgr.msc work

To me it sounds like you have certificate trust issues from the new CA
hierarchy

Windows xp does not work with windows server 2008 CA

I cannot install certificate using certmgr.msc and Auto Enrollment does not
work on Windows XP.

If I request certificate using certmgr.msc, I have a warning

---------------------------
Certificate Request Wizard
---------------------------
The wizard cannot be started because of one or more of the following
conditions:
- There are no trusted certification authorities (CAs) available.
- You do not have the permissions to request certificates from the
available CAs.
- The available CAs issue certificates for which you do not have
permissions.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------


IE (6.0 - 7.0) on windows XP can not open SSL certificate signed by windows
server 2008 CA but Mozilla firework can.

Windows Vista is working without any problem.

Why does Windows XP work with windows server 2008 CA ?
What is the problem ?

Is the XP system joined to the domain? Any errors in the event viewer on
the XP computer?

What does this mean exactly that XP can't open an SSL certificate? Errors?

There could be tons of reasons you're having these problems but without
more detail resolving them is going to be a challenge.

I have Installed four virtual machine

Server1 = Domain Controller
Server2 = EnterpriseSubordinate
Server3 = Enterprise Root CA (not instelled web enrollment)
Client1 = Windows XP Professional (SP2)

All servers are Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Editions.
domain name = yahya.local

On Default Domain Policy
Under Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security
Settings > Publickey Policies
Certtifcate Services Client - Auto - Enrollment (enabled)

Also I imported Root and Intermediate Certifacates to

Under Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security
Settings > Publickey Policies > Trusted Root Certification Authorities
Under Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security
Settings > Publickey Policies > Intermediate Certification Authorities

Under Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security
Settings > Publickey Policies > Automatic Certificate Request Settings
Computer,
Domain Controller,
Enrollment Agent

Under User Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security Settings >
Publickey Policies >
Certtifcate Services Client - Auto - Enrollment (Enabled)


On windows XP
If I request certificate using certmgr.msc, I have a warning

---------------------------
Certificate Request Wizard
---------------------------
The wizard cannot be started because of one or more of the following
conditions:
- There are no trusted certification authorities (CAs) available.
- You do not have the permissions to request certificates from the
available CAs.
- The available CAs issue certificates for which you do not have
permissions.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

On windows Xp,
I opened IE 7.0 and wrote http://server2/certsrv to take a certifcate,
after certificate generated, I have pushed "Install Certficate" but not
installed
I have a error
---------------------------
Windows Internet Explorer
---------------------------
Unable to install the certificate:
Error: 0x80091002
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

If I try to take a certificate using mozilla firefox, it is working
properly, install the certificate.

If i sign a website using windows server 2008 CA , I an not reach using IE
7.0 on windows XP, but mozilla is working.

What Sould I do ?
I I make a mistake, Where?
