I am trying to create my first webservice. I've been googling for a tutorial or examples and most of what I find is from previous versions of Visual Studio and say to create a new ASP.Net Webservice...but that doesn't exist in 2010!
What I need to do is have the service receive 2 strings, an agency and a man number. Then run a query to get some information and return a string with a date and time back to the requestor. I need to have a web interface available to call the service as well.
Any guidance on what I need to do to create the service in Visual Studio 2010 in C# will be appreciated!
Update: I've just been told that this process needs to authenticate the users...can someone guide me to information on implementing certificate or digital signatures into my web service? I've looked but most of what I'm finding is for authenticating through Active Directory or some other maintained list with usernames and passwords.
