Certificate Permissions

I am trying to bring NAVUserPassword up in a production environment. For some reason, I can't access the permissions of the certificate. See the snipets attached.

When I right-click on the certificate in the personal store I don't see the "Manage Private Keys" or "Advanced Operations" options on the pull down menu of "All Tasks".

Any ideas?

This was really strange. I ended up getting access to "Manage Private Keys", but only after I had logged onto the domain controller, accessed the Certificate Templates snap-in for mmc. Then I added my service account to the "Computer" template. After that I re-created the certificate - running makecert as Administrator. After importing the new certificate, I was able to right-click and see that the service account was already there.

Don't forget the DNSIdentity parameter in the config file when you execute the client.
