We have a Windows 2000 AD that is missing it's certificate authority.
It was on a domain controller some time back and since then that DC has been
removed but I beleive the CA was forgotten about. We have some errors on our
other DCs, "Event ID 1010: Automatic enrollment against the certification
authority ourdomain.com has failed....."
Any idea on how to remove this "ghost CA" and any type of problems that it
might cause?
Thanks
