Hi, i would like to connect from my asp.net 2.0 application to another webserver. This webserver requires me to do a https connection with a client certificate. The corresponding client certificate I get from the operator of the other webapplication.I thought iuse the HttpWebRequest class of the .NET framework. This class is able to do a SSL client authentication, but requires that the client certificate is installed in theMy certificate store of the current user. I guess I have no possibility to do this? Is there an other possibility to make a https connection to an other webapplication which requires a client certificate? Thanks Stefan
I believe that ASP.NET 2.0 has the capability to work with digital certificates directly without installation in the My certificate store. The ASP.NET 2.0 Commerce Starter Kit does this with its Paypal module; it uses the Paypal certificate file which is in PFX format. But if you must install the certificate in the My certificate store, DiscountASP allows this. There will be a $15 one-time setup fee. Send the request for a custom certificate to the billing department, and attach the digital key/certificate pair. The certificate must be issued to and have the common name in the following format: [name].YourHostedDomainName.com Aristotle DiscountASP.NET www.DiscountASP.NET
