System.Net.HttpWebRequest with HTTPS

I am using the System.Net.HttpWebRequest object to POST data to an HTTPS web
page.

Other than prefixing the URL with "HTTPS://", do I need to do anything in my
code to indicate that this is SSL?

Here is my code:
// Create Web Request
string url = "https://something.net/something.dll";

HttpWebRequest oHttp =
(HttpWebRequest) WebRequest.Create(url);

// Post form variables
string params = "x_Version=" + version
+ "&x_DelimData=" + delimData
+ "&x_Login=" + login
+ "&x_Password=" + password
+ "&x_Amount=" + amount
+ "&x_Card_Num=" + cardNumber
+ "&x_Exp_Date=" + expirationDate
+ "&x_Type=" + type;
oHttp.Method="POST";
byte [] postBuffer =
System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(1252).GetBytes(pa rams);
oHttp.ContentLength = postBuffer.Length;
Stream postData = oHttp.GetRequestStream();
postData.Write(postBuffer,0,postBuffer.Length);
postData.Close();

// Get results
HttpWebResponse myResponse = (HttpWebResponse) oHttp.GetResponse();
Encoding enc = System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(1252);
StreamReader loResponseStream =
new StreamReader(myResponse.GetResponseStream(), enc);
string retHtml = loResponseStream.ReadToEnd();
myResponse.Close();
loResponseStream.Close();

messages = retHtml;"dgiard" spoke:

Check out if the framework's default certificate policy (URL below)
works for you. If not, you need to implement your own. But that should
be it.

Please tell me what is the error. Its urgent.
Regards."Unable to connect to the remote server"
This means, you must update the web reference to access the web service (Rebuild the WSDL file automatically)
Or the server doesn't allow access to the web service folder (not marked as a web application on IIS)
