Hi all.

I'm implementing a Web Service and a Client that comunicate with SSL.
The Client has a certificate that load with:
509Certificate.CreateFromCertFile("emanuele.cer")

Is there a way to obtain this Client Certificate directly in the Web
Service? I'd like to know the client that use my Web Service.

Thanks in advance,

Emanuele Parati

Use this server code to get the client cert sent:
(Should work, haven't tested it)

HttpContext context = HttpContext.Current;
HttpClientCertificate cert = context.Request.ClientCertificate;
