Wcf self hosted service with X.509 certificate connection error

Question

I have a self hosted Wcf service running on Windows XP and am attempting to use Certificates for message security. This is being done via the service and client config files. Both service and client are running on the same machine and I have created certificates for both using makecert.exe. This worked fine when I had clientCredentialType="Windows" but when I modified the configuration files to use certificates it no longer works. The problem is that when I attempt to connect to the service from the client I am getting the following exception:

Exception Type: System.ServiceModel.Security.SecurityNegotiationException, System.ServiceModel, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089

Message: Incoming binary negotiation has invalid ValueType http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/02/trust/tlsnego.

My configuration settings are:

Try turning off the negotiateServiceCredential settings in your binding:

<wsHttpBinding>
  <binding >
    <security mode="Message">
      <message clientCredentialType="UserName" negotiateServiceCredential="false" />
    </security>
  </binding>
</wsHttpBinding>
