When I got this Nessus ticket from my Cyber Security Section I said no big deal I went over to vSphere and renewed the certificate. It renewed with the date of of 20 March 20 and was good 5 years. I thought no problem. This ticket will go away. I am not sure why Nessus won't trust a self signed cert from VMWARE but it won't. So I thought super easy I will just create some of my MS CA certificate Authority.
I followed these instructions but when it came time to add the certificate to the certificate store MS did not show the template I created:
The problem is these instruction talk about Windows 2003 and Windows 2008 and our CA is a Windows 2012 R2 server and the choices it gives me is on the Compatibility Tab is Certificate Authroity Windows Server 2012 R2(or Windows Server 2012) and the Certificate recipient(Windows 8.1/Windows Server 2012 R2) and ((Windows 8/Windows Server 2012).
So the final problem is when I follow step Right-click Certificate Templatesand click New > Certificate Template to Issue. The new certificate template I created is not in there not only that is does NOT show up in the web request page (https://CA/certsrv).
Any ideas?
Any possibility I can just do this as a standard web request.
