How do you get a System.Web.HttpWebRequest object to use SSL 2.0?

Question

I don\'t know if I have all the information needed to phrase this question well, so bear with me.

I have a local web page (local meaning 192.168.*) that is protected

Answer 1

I've hit this issue myself when dealing with Ssl3, though I'm not sure if the same advice would work for SSL2?

To work around the issue I set the Ssl3 flag on the security protocol like so:

ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Ssl3;

Check out these links for more details:

system.net.servicepointmanager.securityprotocol on MSDN

security protocol enumeration on MSDN

They might point you in the right direction if you're lucky :)
