Hi Arno

Yes, a client certificate. This is not for html but for a custom tcp/ip
protocol. The supplier (sever) maintains I need one for my application
despite my arguments :)

I've purchased Clever ICS and I get a "local certificate not found" or
equivalent and they don't have samples of implementing it either.

Thanks,
Hein

Are you talking about client certificates?
Usually servers do not request a (client)certificate from the client.
When you connect to, i.e., https://www.microsoft.com the server sends one or
multiple certificates to the client. Client's job is to verify the server
certificate(s). The client checks the received certificate(s) against a list
of trusted root certificates, have look at the Https demo application.
