Certsrv page does give the option to store certificate in local computer store
Hello, I am having an issue creating certificates. When I first installed the CA Authority, I had the option to store the certificate in the the local computer store. I enabled the Subject Alternative Name attributes by following Microsoft's KB Atricle 931351. After I did that the option for storing the certificate is gone. Without that option it justs stores the certificate in the User's Personal store rendering it useless to IIS. The private keys are not exportable so you can't move it the computer's personal store. I'm racking my brain trying to figure out what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,TB

Hi,
Have did you request certificate? Please try to request from MMC:
Open MMC, click file, click Add Snap-in, choose Certificates, choose Computer account, choose Local Computer, click Next. Right Click Personal->certificates in the left panel, choose Request New Certificate, follow the wizard to request certificate.
The certificate should be stored under Personal Certificates of Local Computer.
