http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/technolog ies/security/ws3pkibp.mspx#EJAA is a 'best practices' guide that addresses some of this. It covers some of the high-level decisions, and then goes through a scenario for a three-tier CA hierarchy that you can reproduce in a lab.
There are a few errors in the doc that are kind of confusing, and it's not terribly well organized, but it does contain quite a bit of useful info. Let me know if you're interested and I can point out a couple errors that might save you some time and grief. There's also an operations guide at http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/technolog ies/security/ws03pkog.mspx, but I haven't had time to dig through it in any detail yet.
