How to use active directory GPO to install a certificate (.cer)
We need to ensure that all users get an SSL certificate installed in all their web browsers.
I created GPO but it isn't working.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Computer policies will sometimes require a reboot in order for the policies to be applied completely.

tried that as well, still not showing up.
Where did you link the policy? It needs to be linked to an OU that contains the computer objects rather than an OU that holds users.
ASKER
So the only option is the top level domain as the link, the ou's for example, "Computers" is not an option. can you suggest how to correct this.

Ok, so it is linked to the domain. but is possible, how do I link the gpo to the OU if the only choice in the drop down is the domain?
ASKER
One more thing, is the certificate actually installed in the browsers or do they only recognize then from where they are stored on the domain controller? Does the certificate need to be installed on the local domain controller as well (in the trusted root authority)?

Apparently the GPO is working, thank you... It seems to only work for IE. Isthere any way for it to also populate Firefox?
