SUMMARY
If you are using Exchange Server Advanced Security with the Certificate Server included with the Windows NT Option Pack, that Certificate Server will only be able to issue and verify certificates for Exchange Server Advanced Security.



MORE INFORMATION
Part of the process of setting up Exchange Server Advanced Security to use a Certificate Server is to register the Exchange Server policy module (Expolicy.dll) with the Certificate Server. After this policy module has been registered and the Certificate Server service is restarted, that Certificate Server will only be able to issue and verify certificates for Exchange Server.

If you need to have a Certificate Server for issuing and verifying certificates outside of Exchange Server, then you will have to install another Certificate Server to perform that functionality.
