I am trying to build new PKI based on Windows Server 2008 AD CS.

Is it possible to have AD CS on Windows Server 2008 servers in Windows
Server 2003 Active Directory domain? Or do I need to upgrade Active
Directory to 2008 first and then build PKI?

Regards,

Davor

You would need to apply the Windows Server 2008 schema to your AD.
After that, you can deploy Win2k8 CAs in the environment.

Davor,
You don't need to upgrade the active directory schema to Windows Server
2008 schema for deploying and using Windows Server 2008 Certificate
services.
Thanks

You do if you want to take advantage of all of the improvements that are
offered by Windows 2008 AD CS.

Saurav,
Unless you wish to use Version 3 certificate templates or OCSP with the new
default template.
These are only available when you add the new object type.
