    I have a webservice running on my computerusing IIS 5.1. Is there a way to secure my connection whencalling my webservice?I know that if I use server certificate Ineed to run a webserver and needa .net or a .com website. Is there aworkaroundthat I do not have todo this?Currently, I use my public IP address to callthe webservices from my machine.

    what do you mean by securing?

    Do you want to secure the data transmission itself? Or you want to secure it such that only certain people have access to the web service.

    SSL is probably the easiest option.

    Other options are to use WSE 3.0's security feature but it complicated as hell.
