    Hello all,

    Does anyone know if it is possible to tell IIS to accept any client
    certificate (even self signed and not trusted). We have to do custom
    authentication of legacy system, which uses self signed certificates without
    "client" usage specified in certificate.

    Alternatively is it possible to intercept invalid certificate through ISAPI
    filter and tell IIS to accept the connection and get a hold of client
    certificate?

    Thanks for any advise
