whats wrong with just using your current FR certificate on the NPS box?

what are your clients/userbase?  why do you have to use a commercial certificate
for your server?   if the clients authenticating are your clients then they can have
the required private CA installed - the authentication is a closed loop.  if you use
a commercial cert eg thawte, verisign etc and only use that as trust then anyone can
get a cert signed by that commercial CA as a first point to subverting your security
