[NOT ANSWERED] Install client SSL certificate via .NET Msi

[Guest]

If anyone has any ideas on how to install a SSL security certificate on a
remote client (for a WSE SecureConversation scenario), even if it is not
through the .NET msi, as I am really struggling on this one!! Original post
below......


Does anyone know how to get the .NET MSI that you create via a Setup
Project to install a certificate (the public cert) on the client? The
installer is for a Windows application? I have searched google,
Microsoft and VS.NET Help but i can find nothing at all about this topic. I'm
guessing that it is not possible, but hoping that I'm wrong and some
out there has done it!!!

Any help or pointers to articles greatly appreciated!!

Thanks

Does it need to be done automatically?

Just double clicking the certificate will bring up the Certificate Management
Console whereby you can import the certificate into the correct store.

Unfortunatly yes, it MUST be done automatically, I can get it to put the .cer
in the application folder, i guess what i need is to find a way to execute
some custom code in the install, and I'm guessing that the x509Certificate
class has a way of doing this....... this is as far as i've got... for now...
