There is a great chapter in the Windows 2003 Deployment Kit on how to do what
you want. See the link below in Part II on planning a smart card deployment. It
is mostly the same for Windows 2000 though you can not use type 2 certificate
templates to use autoenrollment for users with a Windows 2000 CA. You probably
have what you need already but the wrong certificate type on your smartcard that
would include the UPN for a domain user for domain logon. --- Steve
