You must specify the correct configuration options, including the name of the certificate server. To use the configuration file, you must have the configuration file on the device.
**Note **When you create an image that includes Enroll.exe, Enroll.cfg is not included in the image by default. You have to add the .cfg file to the device by modifying the appropriate .bib file.
