You need to change the certificate template to the Computer (offline
Request) or IPSec (offline request) template. The reason that the
certificate does not appear in the Web page is that the web request is
performed in the security context of the requestor, not the requesting
computer.

By using the offline request forms, the user must input the computer
naming information, and then request the cert.
