How to specify which certificates are trusted when using https for web services

Hi,

I want to use https when consuming a web service created by creating an endpoint with ms sql server 2005 and specify PORTS=SSL when creating the endpoint. I figured out that I have to create and register a certificate for a particular ip/port. I did that with the tools httpcfg, makecert and certutil. But when trying to consume the web service in my project I got a problem that the certificate is issued by someone whom I don't trust (i am the author of the certificate). Can anyone tell me how to specify which certificates I trust

Thanks,
Anton

    You need to add the certificate in your Trusted Root Authority.

    See http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/sag_pkpprocsadddomroot.mspx mfr=true for how to do this. See the related topics on how to use the plug-in for mmc.
