Does anyone know how to create an SSL socket using the .NET Framework?

At this moment, only HTTP over SSL is supported by the .NET runtime. You
can't create an SSL socket [however this will be supported in the new
version of the framework].
At the moment you'll have to use a third party library if you really need
SSL sockets. We have a free and open source library at
http://www.mentalis.org/soft/projects/seclib/

Thanks for the info. Any idea when the next version of the framework is due
out?
