I have the following concerns which I'm trying to solve: Running mobile ASP.NET( C# ) application on IIS 6.0 / Windows 2003 Server, which must be provided with certain security. I'm reading issues about WTLS protocol which is designed to implement this security, but few questions aroused. First, the authentification which WTLS automatically provides is optional. I want all the users of this application and the server always to be authentificated. Is this a matter of some server-side settings? Is there a way to make my users always use security oriented connection ( commonly reffered by the 9203 port ) despite of the initial settings of the mobile browser they have. These are some of the questions. If someone could answer them I'd be very thankful. Thank you in advance. Best regards.

The gateway will convert WTLS traffic into SSL. The layout looks like this: [WAP Device]<-- WTLS --> [WAP Gateway]<-- SSL -->[IIS] Here is a more detailed explanation on thewirelessfaq.com: http://www.thewirelessfaq.com/9.4.asp WTLS is only supported on compliant browsers such as the jBrowser and WinWAP Pro. Please refer to the following list of WAP Gateways (some of them are WTLS compliant): http://www.thewirelessfaq.com/13.4.asp Thanks, Jean-Luc David Microsoft .NET MVP Click here to reveal e-mail address http://www.stormpixel.com http://weblogs.asp.net/jld/ --- Original Message --- [Original message clipped] Reply to this message...     Ad MBR BootFX Best-of-breed application framework for .NET projects, developed by Matthew Baxter-Reynolds and MBR IT
