Certificates won't work in Linked Pool with persistent drives
When we deploy a pool of linked-clones using Windows 7, the IE certificates will not install correctly. The situation seems to be related to the moving of the profiles to the D: persistent disk. If I build a pool without configuring the use of persistent disks, I can successfully add a certificate for a website.
We have built the Windows 7 gold image as a workgroup using an administrator user. The View Composer joins the pool to the domain.
I have searched extensiviely and can't find anyone indicating that they are experiencing this problem. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Our environment is esxi 4.1u1 and view composer 4.5.

I reviewed Paul's document and we have followed his procedures. The second partition I was referring to is the persistant user disk that View Composer creates.
I believe the problem has to do with where windows 7 thinks the certificate store should be, because if I login as a local administrator (whose profile is on the c drive), the certificate will install.
Do you know how windows keeps track of where the certificates store is to be located?

you might want to use a gpo to install the certificate http://unixwiz.net/techtips/deploy-webcert-gp.html
