Author	Forum: PowerTCP Sockets for .NET (Secure and Standard) Topic: Using certificates in a windows service application
olihelgi From: Kopavogur, Iceland Posts: 3 Member Since: 02/18/04	posted February 23, 2004 10:25 AM I'm building a server application which uses your SSL sockets for .NET and uses certificates. When I use the localMachine MY store I can connect with my client without trouble but when I try to use the localMachine ROOT store the SSL handshake fails. The windows service is supposed to be able to run on a machine even if no user logs on to it and which store do I have access to in those kind of circumstances ?

If you can't do that, then you need to do something with the local policy or permissions to allow the service to access the certificate. I do not know exactly what you need to do to the policies, but I am sure you could find someone else who has had the same problem using groups.google.com
