Problem with CA after restore from tape backup
-
Thursday, December 13, 2012 1:02 PMI was called in to rescue an office that had a bad restore from tape to their Windows 2008 server. They are having problems with their Exchange Certificate that requires the recreation of their self-signed certificate. The problem that I am having is that the CA is inaccessible and the service is unable to start. I have tried esentutl with truncate repair option and it fails. How can I completely remove and reinstall the CA components?
