Hi Heinz,

I've never worked with certificates or the Win7 integrated client, but I
thought I might ask a question:  is the Windows machine part of an
Active Directory domain, and does that AD infrastructure have its own
Certificate Authority?  If so, I'm guessing that the Win7 integrated
client may be able to use the AD/CA infrastructure for certificate
resolution.  It's just a guess though.
