Citrix, Microsoft CryptoAPI and User Profiles
rod....@gmail.com
I am hoping someone can shed some light on my problem.
It seems that when using an application that uses Microsoft CryptoAPI
to encrypt data within a Citrix environment that has logon scripts to
re-direct the user profiles to a another drive mapping (ie. not the
default Windows installation drive - usually c:\), the encryption
fails.
Background information.
When the Microsoft CryptoAPI is used by an application to encrypt /
decrypt data, it creates its encryption keys in this location
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application
Data\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys
The problem is that when the user logs into Citrix, the logon script
creates their user profile to an other drive letter.
The encryption keys are created, but the encryption process fails.
I found a similar post about this here.

Can anyone see a solution or shed some additional light on this issue
please?
Many thanks,
Rod.
