The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Sign a XML file by SmartCard on the .NET

Asked by Wemerson in Delphi.net Programming, Encryption for Network Security, C# Programming Language

Tags: Delphi .Net / C#, cryptographic service provider (CSP) does not support this key algorithm, I have a program in Java signing the XML file with my SmartCard. There is a component paid SecureBlackbox (http://www.eldos.com/sbbdev/), which also makes this signature using my SmartCard

I'm having problems to access the private key of the certificate stored on the chip card.

If i access the private key of a certificate with private key stored on the machine certificate store it works well.....but in the case of the chip card, when i read the X509Certificate2.PrivateKey property, i receive a System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException: cryptographic service provider (CSP) does not support this key algorithm
thanks !!!

Note: I have a program in Java signing the XML file with my SmartCard.
              There is a component paid SecureBlackbox (http://www.eldos.com/sbbdev/), which also makes this signature using my SmartCard. Is there any way to make the signature with. Native net.

// Example C#
// Open the My certificate store.
   X509Store storeMy = new X509Store(StoreName.My,
      StoreLocation.CurrentUser);
   storeMy.Open(OpenFlags.ReadOnly);
   X509Certificate2Collection  certs=X509Certificate2UI.SelectFromCollection   
      (storeMy.Certificates, "Selection", "Select a certificate", 
      X509SelectionFlag.SingleSelection);
   X509Certificate2 cert=certs[0];
   storeMy.Close();
 
   // Returns TRUE
   cert.HasPrivateKey;
 
   /* Here i receive a System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException: cryptographic service provider (CSP) does not support this key algorithm (It occurs only when i am accessing the private key of the certificate stored on the chip card...if the certificate with private key is stored on the machine certificate store it works well..)*/
   cert.PrivateKey;
 
//Example Delphi® 2007 for Microsoft® .NET
var
