Currently i have a separate server configured for web enrollment with open trust delegation from the enterprise CA. (using kerberos only)

However, when i require windows authentication for the web enrollment web page, it throws me an error
An unexpected error has occurred: The Certification Authority Service has not been started.
(this is for the download CA certificate, CRL option)

When i turn set to 'Automatic login only when in intranet zone' from internet options, everything works fine. (Kerberos ticket is retrieved when i check using klist http/web-server) Once i change to 'Prompt for username and password', i get errors above and sometimes the authentication fails 3 times with the 401 not authorized error.

    Hello @PKInoob88 ,

    Thank you for your waiting.

    I have done a test in my lab.

    I can request certs no matter the option is 'Automatic login only when in intranet zone' or 'Prompt for username and password' from internet options. I have checked in two different PKI environments.

    Can you please check if there is the same behavior on different PCs.
