The white paper titled "Creating Certificate Hierarchies with Microsoft Certificate Server Version 1.0" describes how to use Microsoft Certificate Server version 1.0 and certification authority hierarchies with Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5 Service Pack 1. As noted in the Microsoft Windows NT Option Pack release notes, Microsoft Certificate Server 1.0 does not officially support certification authority hierarchies. However, several of the key capabilities of a certification authority hierarchies feature do work and can reasonably be used in an implementation with Exchange Server to achieve most of the desirable characteristics of certification authority hierarchies.
