I have two new Server 2008 standard domain controllers in a new environment and am receiving this error in the event log:

The Key Distribution Center (KDC) cannot find a suitable certificate to use for smart card logons, or the KDC certificate could not be verified. Smart card logon may not function correctly if this problem is not resolved. To correct this problem, either verify the existing KDC certificate using certutil.exe or enroll for a new KDC certificate.

This error is specifically mentioned on this MS url:


However, I've followed the steps and can confirm that there are no certificates in the Personal folder on either domain controller AND an attempt to request a certificate fails.

Running

certutil -dcinfo verify

Brings us:

1: LONDC01
