I have an Enterprise 2003 CA that is issuing Basic EFS certificates. When I
encrypt a file on a local computer running XP, the file is encrypted with the
Basic EFS certificate that was issued by the CA.
Here is my problem. When I encrypt a file on a different server from my XP
machine, the server encrypts the file with a user signed certificate. It is
not using the Basic EFS certificate from my machine. The certificate was
auto generated by the remote server since I had never encrypted a file on the
server before.
What is going on? I have looked through the registry of the remote server
and I cannot find the certificate that is assigned to my machine so I don't
know how to remove it.
