C# - Use X509Certificate2 Within ASP Without Using Certificate Store?
Jan 20, 2010
I am trying to use an X509Certificate within an ASP.NET web service within the Rackspace Cloud. I have a feeling the certificate stores on the cloud nodes maybe causing problems. I also have a question related to this with the exception that I am receiving at SslStream.AuthenticateAsClient Exception when using iPhone Apple Push Notification Provider (apns-sharp) C# Within the apns-sharp project I was using the following code:
certificate = new X509Certificate2(p12File)
However I received an exception and changing the code to the following resolved the X509Certificate2 exception. The new code is as follows:
certificate = new X509Certificate2(p12File, String.Empty, X509KeyStorageFlags.MachineKeySet);
I would like to know if I can use an X509Certificate2 within ASP.NET without using a certificate store? Would the certificate stores be causing problems with the Rackspace Cloud nodes?
Update #1 Rackspace tell me that access to the Local Machine Certificate store is not permitted. Is there any other way to bypass using the certificate store? Maybe using a third party library?

I have an ASP.NET application that accesses private key in a certificate in the certificates store. On Windows Server 2003 I was able to use winhttpcertcfg.exe to give private key access to the NETWORK SERVICE account. How do I give permissions to access a Private Key in a certificate in the certificate store (Local ComputerPersonal) on a Windows Server 2008 R2 in an IIS 7.5 website? I've tried giving Full Trust access to "Everyone", "IIS AppPoolDefaultAppPool", "IIS_IUSRS", and everyother security account I could find using the Certificates MMC (Server 2008 R2). However the below code demonstrates that the code does not have access to the Private Key of a certificate that was imported with the private key. The code instead throws and error everytime the private key property is accessed.

Quick question: is it possible to retrive a users certificate store i.e. list all of the client's Personal Certificates?
Just to be clear, I am talking about the certificates installed on the clients machine, not the servers. I have managed to list the server's certificates, but so far have been unsuccesful with the above.

I want to store a X509 certificate to a user store in Novell viathe ".NET C# LDAP Library" that Novell has developed [URL]I can store different entries like givenName, commonName, mail, description etc. etc. Everythings works fine :)But I can't store a certificate correctly because the final encoding of the certificate will be failed.I've tried to send the entire certificate as HEX and Base64 in strings and bytes but the final encoding will still be failed.
[Code]....
So my question is:Anyone who knows how I should encode the certificate before sending it?

Let's assume our users in their office using Internet explorer to sign some Web Pages using their client certificate imported into the Internet explorer browser (let s assume no other browser is used)
what is a good approach/architecture for validating the client certificate (Internet Explorer), how to send that certificate or the signed form to the server and how do we verify the signature
Should we use smart client approach integrated to the web application or some silverlight or so or is web form/web pages enough to implement this security requirement ?

hey folks I got a general question that maybe some of you can just weigh in. I developed an online store for a client and people place orders online for a food ordering place however I am trying to find the best way to have the orders show up for them at the store. Currently I am sending an email and an autoprint software prints it out which works most of the time but not good enough sometimes it doesn't print. Anyone had similar issues or have other alternative solutions you may have heard off? Like I said the site sends an email to the customer and the store's email account.

If I'm taking a password on a page, should that page be served via https and exactly how dangerous is it not to? I've tried googling this but every guide just says that ssl certificates "stop hackers seeing sensative data" with no real description of how they would do this or exactly how vulnerable your site is as a result of not having ssl.Could someone summarize how easy it is for someone to steal passwords on non-https pages? Should i even be considering doing a login page without one?

I'll install a SSL Certificate on my IIS Server to secure my website. The entire site will be under HTTPS.
The website is currently done and working good in HTTP.
Should I change something on scripting or database connections? Or the certificate do not change anything on my website's operation?

I need to add a cert. for the NetworkService account as this is what Identity of my App pool is set to, but I'm not sure how to go about doing that. Here's the steps, I take: Bring up the run command and submit "mmc"When the Management console appears I click on File > Add/Remove snap-in.Select Certificates and click AddSelect Service Account, click Next twice Then I'm presented with a bunch of Service Accounts. The ones that kind of resemble what I'm looking for are: Network Access Protection AgentNetwork ConnectionsNetwork List ServiceNetwork Location AwarenessNetwork Store Interface Service Out of the choices above, Network List Service would be my best guess.

This is in VS 2005. And IIS is 6.0. I am trying to use Self signed certificate for HTTPS. In the code i am redirecting from http to https for few pages. It is nt working fine. and in the IIS manager, for each page that i want HTTPs, i have changed its setting by checking "Require Secure Channel(SSL)" and "Require 128 bit encryption".
public void setSecureProtocol()
{
string redirectUrl = null;
bool bSecure = true;
bool SecureConnection = true;
if (bSecure && SecureConnection)
redirectUrl = Request.Url.ToString().Replace("http:", "https:");
else
if (!bSecure && SecureConnection)
redirectUrl = Request.Url.ToString().Replace("https:", "http:");
if (redirectUrl != null)
Response.Redirect(redirectUrl);
}
Pages throw me an error like this The page must be viewed over a secure channel The page you are trying to access is secured with Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL).
Please try the following:
* Type https:// at the beginning of the address you are attempting to reach and press ENTER.
HTTP Error 403.4 - Forbidden: SSL is required to view this resource. Internet Information Services (IIS)Internet Information Services (IIS) When i try to put https in the start of the URl, it wont call. I have no idea whats wrong in here. Here, Its not redirecting from http to https. For the pages that i am not redirecting in the code behind, and changing in the IIS, i can see the HTTPS when i check the two checkboxes.

I am looking to get the data from any given domain names SSL certificate. For example I want to put in any website address e.g. "www.asp.net" and my code would firstly check if an SSL certificate exists. If it does then I want it to pull out the Issuer, Subject, Valid From and Valid Until etc. The intention is to create an SSL certificate checker similar to this: [URL]
How can I do this ASP.net???? - I have looked up loads of different things such as RequestCertificateValidationCallback and ClientCertificates etc.
would I create a HTTPWebRequest and then somehow request the client certificate and specific elements that way?

There are 2 web-servers involved:
Webserver1 has been in the organization a few years and is hosting/running multiple websites with https encryption (app1.ourcompany.com, app2.ourcompany.com, etc). It has a valid, signed certificate.
Webserver2 is a new server, for which I am responsible. I am tasked with setting up https and getting the certificate, etc. It has a web app running on it, but it does not have a domain name (only has an IP address)...which as I recently learned, is a requirement for a signed certificate.
What I'd like to know is this -- is it possible to set up a site on Webserver1 that points to the site I'm hosting on Webserver2 (ie SiteOnWebserver2.ourcompany.com) which also utilizes the Webserver1's signed/verified certificate?
