Sunil,

Ok it's getting stranger. I seems in sync with CVS and can't duplicate the
problem with the 2 "candidate" certificates I got (the one from
https://www.nldap.com and the one that Carlos sent me).

Can you try, with your certificate, the following code ...

using System;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;

class X509Tester {
        [STAThread]
        static void Main (string[] args)
        {
                X509Certificate x = X509Certificate.CreateFromCertFile (args[0]);
                Console.WriteLine (x.ToString (true));
        }
}

... on
a.      Windows, MS.NET runtime/class library
b.      Windows, Mono runtime/class library
c.      Linux, Mono runtime/class library

and fill a bug report with the results and the certificate used. I'll look
into this ASAP.
Thanks

Looks like there is some problem with the Mono's
System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate class.
I tried to create a certicate object using CreateFromCertFile method and a
ASN1 DER encoded certicate file  ,but its throwing exception. I did the same
thing on windows using MS .NET with the same certificate file and its
working. Below is the code snippet:-

try{
X509Certificate cert = X509Certificate.CreateFromCertFile(certfile);
}Catch(Exception e)
{
        Console.WriteLine("Error:" + e.Message);
        return;
}

On linux it throws following exception:-
Error: Input data cannot be coded as a valid certificate.

Regards
Sunil.

Thanks very much.

I have made a little test trying to negotiate the Handshake protocol
against the www.nldap.com using .NET 1.0 and the SSL/TLS libraries
sources from my local tree, with success, i will try to make the same
test using mono, and update the mono cvs sources as soon as possible.
