I looked at this already, it is for NT 4. W2K3 does not have entries in the
ODBC for Cert Services (BTW, did I mention it is for W2K3?).

Any other thoughts?

Nope you didn't mention the OS. Is this a fresh installation or the service
stopped working suddenly?

Stopped working suddenly. Really weird. I think I'll try re-installing the
OS and see if that helps.
