Apologies for resubmitting this question - but it's a bit of a showstopper
for us and I can't believe no one else has come across it. I assume that
somewhere there's a registry key / config setting that would help, but
without knowing about it it's impossible to find!

----------------
I'm having problems consuming a web using SSL, and keep getting the above
exception.

I believe, from various .NET forums
(http://weblogs.asp.net/tgraham/arch.../12/213469.aspx), that this
is because the certificate is untrusted (it's on a development machine, and
there's a name mismatch), and when accessing the URL via the SOAP adapter
there is no way of forcing acceptance of the certificate.

I've read that by changing machine.config on the server on which the SOAP
request is made so that checkCertificateName attribute of the
servicePointManager element is "false", all certificates should be accepted,
without the challenge, but this hasn't made any difference.

Can anyone help?
