I am trying to access a web service from a C# application.

I have been given a client certificate from the web service provider which I have installed into Windows.

The response I get from the web service is:

The HTTP request was forbidden with client authentication scheme 'Anonymous'.

What is the likely reason for this response?

Is it because my client certificate is not "trusted" by the server hosting the web service?

Is this a WCF service, old-style ASP.NET ASMX web-service, the new ASP.NET Web API platform, or something else? – Dai Feb 18 '14 at 22:17
@Dai : I don't know what type of web-service it is. The HTTP response says it is from a "WebSEAL" server. – CJ7 Feb 19 '14 at 01:20
