SYMPTOMS
========

Internet Authentication Server 1.0 (IAS) does not have the ability to proxy
MS-CHAP version 2.0 requests, digital signatures, or allow cross-forest
authentication to a computer running Windows 2000 Server.

CAUSE
=====

This problem occurs because IAS was not originally designed to support this
functionality.

RESOLUTION
==========
