Consume a webservice - WS Security

Question

I am about to develop a windows applikation which need to communicate with an Axis2 webservice using Web Service Security - all the documentation says is, that the SOAP security communication is configured to TIMESTAMP, SIGNATURE, ENCRYPT and the the certificate of my company must be installed in my keystore and the SOAP client I am about to develop must trust the webservice-provider certificate. But from here I am lost.

I know how to use a regular webservice - but with the above informations nothing I know of or do will succeed, all I have figured out so far is installing Web Service Enhancement 3.0. Im using VS2008/C#.

Does anyone knows a good guide or provide a code-sample?

Here's a link to the WSE 3.0 Quick Start Examples:

If you're using VS2008 though, you should considering building your client using WCF. You won't need to install WSE 3.0 as the security standards are built-in. Here's a WCF reference that should get you started on the security aspect:
