      A list of supported certificate templates appears.

    2. Select the Authenticated Session certificate template, and then choose OK.

  2. On TESTSERVER, from Administrative Tools, open Active Directory Sites and Services.
    1. From the View menu, choose Show Services Node.

    2. Under the Services node, double-click Public Key Services, and then double-click Certificate Templates.

      A list of supported certificate templates appears.

    3. To set the security permissions for the ClientAuth and the User templates, right-click each template, and choose Properties. For each of the two templates, on the Security tab on the template properties page, choose the Authenticated Users group, and then select the Allow checkbox for Enroll permissions.
