PEAP Certificate Problem

I'm trying to get setup 802.1x using PEAP in my development domain. I'm
getting an error message saying:
"A certificate could not be found that can be used with this Extensible
Authentication Protocol"
When attempting to hit the configure button next to Protected EAP selection
box in IAS server configuring a new Wireless policy. I know this relates to
the machine having a computer certificate that is trusted and that may be
used for this purpose.
I think that I have followed all the steps necessary to make this work,
having read the Enterprise Deployment of Secure 802.11 Networks Using
Microsoft Windows article.
Here is what I have done so far since I think I'm just missing something so
obvious it's killing me.
1) Setup an Active Directory domain on a Windows 2003 Enterprise server
running in Windows 2003 Native mode
2) Setup a standalone root CA on a separate server with the web enrollment
piece enabled
3) Installed an Enterprise Subordinate CA on the domain controller,
generated the certificate request, issued one through the web console and
imported that certificate into the issuing server.
4) Setup a new GPO that allowed for autoenrollment of computer certificates
and imported the Root CA Certificate as a Trusted Root Certificate in the GPO
5) Made a copy of the "computer" certificate type in the Manage CA console
and setup the security so that workstations, servers and domain controllers
could autoenroll the cert.
5) Went back to the GPO and setup this new certificate for autoenrollment
6) Went to AD Users/Computers and created a new security group for wireless
access to be used with the IAS policy and added a few test users to it
7) Forced an update of the computer group policy and verified that the
certificate was installed on the domain controller through the issuing
Certificate Authority and the Local/Computer certificate mmc snapin.
8) Installed the IAS server and made sure to validate it for looking up
information in AD
9) Setup a new Radius client for my access point being used for this test
10) Attempted to configure the new Remote Access Policy using the wireless
wizard in IAS and this is where I get my error message.

What the heck did I miss? I know it must be something simple so I even
tried to reboot the machine thinking maybe something just needed to
initialize correctly. But I'm stumped. It looks like I did everything
according to the instructions so if another set of eyes could just look at
these steps and tell me what I missed, I would be ever so grateful.

Are you attempting to deploy PEAP-MS-CHAP v2 or PEAP-TLS?

For the server cert, make sure the cert meets the minimum server cert
requirements in the Help topic "Network access authentication and
certificates" in Windows Server 2003 IAS or VPN Help, or on the web at
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/pro...3/library/Serv
erHelp/9d8b61c9-a870-4627-a8f2-148625fd7fba.mspx.
