I´m trying to sign some text or XML node using my certificates, installed on Internet Explorer or from filesystem (or some method!)…but I want to ask the user for his certificate password when signing.
If i´m not wrong, I think that I need that password to access the private key and with that key, sign my data….is ok?
Nothing that I read helps me in the part of asking the password or getting the private key.
Some examples or help will be great.
With
X509Certificate2 x509 = new X509Certificate2(@"c:\Test.pfx", "test")you can import certificate with the private key information from the PFX file. The private key can be received byx509.PrivateKey.You can find many examples how to sign XML file.
