If you install an enterprise root CA using Active Directory Certificate
Services, the CA will automatically enroll a cert to AD-based DC's.

That said, before installing a root CA you should actually design your PKI
and ensure that you are deploying the CA securely.

In addition, you can purchase server certificates from companies such as
Verisign.
