Why not use SSL? It takes care of all of these details for you and has a
very well thought out algorithm for key exchange. If you take your security
seriously, you won't try to design your own but will use a proven one
instead. If you want to use a proven one, why not also use a proven
implementation that you don't have to debug and test.
You can easily layer SslStream over your sockets-based .NET app.
Another easy way to do this is to use NegotiateStream, but that assumes you
want to use Windows security on both ends of the pipe which you may not.

Hi,
I have developed a client and server application.
The client and server application are created using the socket
programming.
Now i want to send the data in encrypted format.
For that i want to generate the symmertric key. Can somebody provide me
the
pointers how symmetric key generation is negotiated between client and
server.
Regards,
y Iguchi
