Hi all,

The other day I created this C# sample which shows how to request an smartcard logon cert to a CA. It is based on this other sample: How to create a certificate request with CertEnroll and .NET (C#).

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.ComponentModel;

using System.Data;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Text;

using System.Windows.Forms;



//  Add the CertEnroll namespace

using CERTENROLLLib;

using CERTCLIENTLib;



namespace CATest

{

    public partial class Form1 : Form

    {

        private const int CC_DEFAULTCONFIG = 0;

        private const int CC_UIPICKCONFIG = 0x1;

        private const int CR_IN_BASE64 = 0x1;

        private const int CR_IN_FORMATANY = 0;

        private const int CR_IN_PKCS10 = 0x100;

        private const int CR_DISP_ISSUED = 0x3;

        private const int CR_DISP_UNDER_SUBMISSION = 0x5;

        private const int CR_OUT_BASE64 = 0x1;

        private const int CR_OUT_CHAIN = 0x100;

        {

}

I hope this helps.
