Hello-

I have a web service that uses a certificate to call another web
service. When we install this web service on a new machine we often
get an error message stating the machine does not have access to the
Private Key. To remedy this situation I am writing a small utility to
ensure the private key has appropriate rights. However, I am finding
it difficult to retrieve the private key file based on an X509
Certificate in C#.

Does anyone know if it is possible, given an X509Certificate object to
find the windows file location of the private key corresponding to
that certificate, in C#?

Thanks!

Drew
