hi,

 i am currently working on a sample and a tool to troubleshoot with SslStream - i half way finished (and working so far). i can send you what i got...

 One thing to note - i am not quite sure if SslStream in your .net build is working at all...i am using Nov CTP and they changed e.g. some of the method names, e.g. ClientAuthenticate -> AuthenticateAsClient a.s.o.

 Hi everyone,
 
 Could someone point me a tutorial on using SslStream (.NET 2)? Here is
 what I have:
 
 * When I try to read or write to a SslStream which is not authenticated
 (ClientAuthenticate or ServerAuthenticate), I get an exception
 (InvalidOperationException: "This operation is only allowed on
 successfully authenticated context. Invoke one of Authenticate overload
 methods first.");
 
 * If I try to authenticate the server with ServerAuthenticate, I get an
 exception (Win32Exception: "No credentials available on security
 package.", translated from portuguese);
 
 * If I authenticate the client only, with ClientAuthenticate, I also get
 the first exception.
 
 So, if someone could help, what should I do to use a SslStream?
 
 Extra info: I'm using .NET 2.0.40607, Windows 2000 Professional (logging
 on AD) and test certificate created with makecert.exe.
 
 Thanks,
 Harkos
