Certificate Services Active X control?

[BaDaB00M 0]

I have an Enterprise Certificate Server installed and I was following this article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;253498 to install an IPsec certificate.

 

I get to step #5 under "Installing a Local Computer Certificate from an Enterprise Windows 2000 Certificate Authority" and then it has a "pop-under" window that says "Downloading Active X control..." but it just stays like that and never finishes. I let it sit for days even because I was working on other things. Is there some control that has to be installed?

 

I hope I doing the right thing... It's to try and setup a site to site VPN using L2TP/IPsec. I need to install the certificate and then I can setup the Routing and Remote Access as I understand it. Thanks for the help.

Check to make sure IE 5.x or 6 allows this by :

 

To enable Active-X

 

1. Launch Internet Explorer

 

2. Select Tools -> Internet Options -> Security

 

3. Then Select Custom Level …. ->

 

4. Enable Downloading of Signed Active X controls

 

5. Enable Run Active-x Controls and Plug-ins

I figured it out... apparently if the client has this patch on it then the server must also have this patch or it gets stuck when it tries to download the active X control. Here is the link to the patch:
