When renewing a certificate, users are presented three choices for installing the new certificate:
Personal store
Local machine store
Smart Card
The option 'Personal store' is selected by default.
Use a text editor to open the file <KCA-install-dir>/WebServer/enroll-server/get-cert-msie.xuda, and look for the following lines:
<P> Where is this certificate being installed?
<SELECT NAME="USERPROTECT">
<OPTION VALUE="0" SELECTED>Personal store</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="1">Local machine store</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="2">Smart Card</OPTION>
</SELECT>
</P>
To change the default selection to 'Smart Card', change the above lines so they look like the following:
<P> Where is this certificate being installed?
<SELECT NAME="USERPROTECT">
<OPTION VALUE="0">Personal store</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="1">Local machine store</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="2" SELECTED>Smart Card</OPTION>
</SELECT>
</P>
Save the changes. All users will get 'Smart Card' as the default option to install the renewed certificate to.
