Client Certifcate Info in Web Service

dotnet security: How Do I go about accessing the Client Certifcate info in .NET for a web
service? All I can seem to find for an object containing this info is:

HttpClientCertificate cert = Request.ClientCertificate;

however, Request is not found...i'm guessing this is for an ASP.NET app vs
an ASP.NET Web Service.

Just need to verify the user so I can grant a limited access to the system

You should be able to do HttpContext.Current.Request in your web service.

Hi,

the Request is part of the current HttpContext.

get a reference to that first:

HttpContext ctx = HttpContext.Current;

HttpClientCertificate cert = ctx.Request.ClientCertificate;

I also did a screencast recently about this very topic - maybe thats interesting
to you:
