Import-PfxCertificate

“CurrentUser”                                                        = Personal User Store

“My”                                                                           = Personal Cert Store

<Password>”                                                       = Password of the PFX Certificate

2. Deploy Script via GPO

I created an additional GPO and modified the Logon Script path to run the vbs file above.

User Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Scripts > Logon

- Script Name: \\<domain>\NETLOGON\Certificates\ImportPFX.vbs

2a. Apply Security to GPO

In our case we wanted to deploy the certificates to users in a certain AD Group.

Follow this procedure exactly otherwise the GPO won’t apply

  1. Under Security Filtering leave Authenticated Users, do not remove!!
  2. Click Delegation tab
  3. Click Advanced button
  4. Select Authenticated Users, untick ‘Apply Group Policy’ under Allow only
  5. Add in AD Group, tick ‘Apply Group Policy’ under Allow
  6. If you go back to Security Filtering you’ll notice Authenticated Users has now gone and your AD Group is listed, don’t worry about this..

Local HP Printer

Configured Policies:

- Auto-create client printers: (Auto-create the client’s default printer only)

Environment

  • Citrix XenApp 6.5 RU2
  • Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

Issue

Installing ‘Director Windows Management Instrumentation Provider’ (DirectorWMIProvider_x64.msi) onto Citrix XenApp 6.5, the component installs but then fails starting the service.

Resolutions

  • Recommend Fix:

Ensure the latest Microsoft Root Certificate has been applied – http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/931125 then install DirectorWMIProvider_x64.msi (ideal fix), the service will now start during install.

  • Alternate Workaround:

Enable “Turn off Automatic Root Certificate Update” in GPO under Computer Settings / Administrative Templates / System / Internet Communication Management, then install DirectorWMIProvider_x64.msi (this fix isn’t ideal but works, you might experience issues browsing to https sites of the latest Root Cert Update hasn’t been applied.

Recommend to install KB970067 also, this hotfix resolves issues with high CPU for Wmiprvse.exe on Terminal Servers running Windows Server 2008.
