Hi Peter,
I have used this tool successfully on Win2K Server. I downloaded it
from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...7-c748e422833f

I had a heck of a time getting my digital certificates to work properly
until I read and followed this article..then it worked.

Re: About WinHttpCertCfg

Thank you for taking time to answer my question. After reading, I still could
not make the thing work. Here is what I did.

(1) Winhttpcertcfg. exe -i PFXFile -c LOCAL_MACHINE\M y -a “AccountNameâ €. It
is successful.

Then, I looked for current dir where PFXFile residents, there is no new
files. But I need a *.cert file to construct a X509Certificate , right? Where
could I find it? Ok, in the doc pointed by URL “If you are using the .NET
Framework 1.1, you must first export the key to a DER-encoded file. You must
export the key because the
System.Security .Cryptography.X 509Certificates .X509Certificat e class does not
contain methods to directly access the details of a certificate from a
certificate store. Therefore, the application must read the details of a
certificate from a DER-encoded file.”

How could I export the key and what is the key? I tried to cut cert key
portion of PFXFile and use X509Certificate .FromBase64Stri ng to get
X509Certificate , but it failed with "Could not establish secure channel for
SSL/TLS".

Any clue will be appreciated.

Thanks.
