SSL Connections

[MarkusSchaber]

Hi,

I'm currently looking for possibilities to connect to a Server using
SSL. But it seems that the SslStream class is not available on the
compact framework. This irritates me, as MS claims SSL support
for .NET CF for Sockets, http, SOAP and SQL Server Compact
synchronization: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb738067.aspx?ppud=4#SSLwiththe.NETCompactFramework

What do they mean with "sockets" exactly, and how do I get a simple
ssl-encrypted TCP stream? Do I have to refer to 3rd party libraries?

Thanks,
Markus

After some googling, we found

and http://blogs.msdn.com/cgarcia/archi...ssl-for-managed-socket-on-windows-mobile.aspx.

This might do the trick.

story
