Thread: HttpWebRequest ala SSL

Writing a secure client app trying to use .NET framework. If I try straight html, server pop-sup an authenticate window and the xml gets digested. Use a WebFrom with HttpWebRequest/Response objects and no dice. Did lots of homework, any ideas from the pro's?

Code:

try{	string postData="<?xml version="1.1"?>" 
	//XML skinnied down for brevity.
	
	ServicePointManager.CertificatePolicy = new CertPolicy();

	HttpWebRequest myRequest =
		(HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://emkttrn.pjm.com/emkt/xml/query");

	X509Certificate myCert =
		X509Certificate.CreateFromCertFile(@"c:\pjmtest.cer");
	X509CertificateCollection x509 = myRequest.ClientCertificates;
	x509.Add (myCert);
	myRequest.ClientCertificates.Add(myCert);
	
			ASCIIEncoding encodedData=new ASCIIEncoding();
			byte[]  byteArray=encodedData.GetBytes(postData);
			myRequest.Method="POST";
			myRequest.ContentType="text/xml";
			myRequest.ContentLength=byteArray.Length;
			WebHeaderCollection myWebHeaderCollection = myRequest.Headers;
			myWebHeaderCollection.Add("POST:/emkt/xml/query HTTP/1.1");
			myWebHeaderCollection.Add("SOAPAction:/emkt/xml/query");
			
			//Place XML after headers.
			
				Stream newStream=myRequest.GetRequestStream();
				newStream.Write(byteArray,0,byteArray.Length);
				newStream.Close();
			
			//Wait for a response...
			HttpWebResponse myResponse=(HttpWebResponse)myRequest.GetResponse();

		
			Stream receiveStream = myResponse.GetResponseStream();
			Encoding encode = System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding("utf-8");
			StreamReader readStream = new StreamReader( receiveStream, encode );		
			Char[] read = new Char[256];  
			int count = readStream.Read( read, 0, 256 );
			while (count > 0) 
			{	String str = new String(read, 0, count);
				if(count==1)
				{TextBox2.Text = str;};
				TextBox2.Text = TextBox2.Text + "\n" + str; 
				count = readStream.Read(read, 0, 256);
			}
		
			readStream.Close();
			myResponse.Close();
}

//Textbox 2 on webform tells me that the server connection is closed...

catch(System.Net.WebException v)
			{TextBox2.Text = v.Message;}

	public class CertPolicy : ICertificatePolicy
	{
		public bool CheckValidationResult(ServicePoint sp, X509Certificate cert,
			WebRequest request, int problem)
		{
			return true;
