RE: view keystore names

Hi Chuck,

You are right, Your link has specify the detail.
The RSAProtectedConfigurationProvider is the default provider and uses the
RSA public key encryption to encrypt and decrypt data.

If you use Machine Key Container.
RSA machine key containers are stored in the following folder:
\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application
Data\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys

If you use RSA user-level key containers.
RSA user-level key containers are stored in the following folder:
\Documents and Settings\{UserName}\Application Data\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA
And run the following command from a command prompt to import the custom
RSA encryption keys:
aspnet_regiis -pi "CustomKeys" "C:\CustomKeys.xml"
