I am having an issue with a 2008 R2 Standard Enterprise CA where computer accounts are being issued multiple certificates. Auto-enrollment is configured via group policy. The template in use is &quot;Copy of Workstation Authentication&quot;. &quot;Publish certificate in Active Directory&quot; and &quot;Do not automatically reenroll if a duplicate certificate exists in Active Directory&quot; are both enabled on the template. It is not a widespread issue but there are usually a few a day, but not for the same computer day after day.<br />
<br />
It may not be at all related but the event application log for this CA server frequently has the following logged:<br />
<br />
Event 77: Classic, CertificationAuthority<br />
<br />
The &quot;Windows default&quot; Policy Module logged the following warning: The Active Directory connection to CASERVER.DOMAIN.COM has been reestablished to CASERVER.DOMAIN.COM.<br />
<br />
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

HTTPS is a protocol for secure communication over a computer network which is widely used on the Internet. HTTPS consists of communication over Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) within a connection encrypted by Transport Layer Security (TLS) or its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).
