SN.EXE Tool

Was reading about the sn tool in a book. Explained that you could use the sn
-c <containername> command to create a machine wide container for a strong
name keypair. Then use the sn -i <filename> <containername> command to store
the key in the keyfile in the container. Well, sounded good but, doesn't
work for me. I'm runing Windows/XP Pro with MSDE, and IIS local with VS.NET
1.1 installed. I don't have any trouble with the sn tool unless I issue a
command like: sn -c test, the response is that the container test was
created. Next though when I try to run: sn -k somename.snk, I get an error
message that say's something like 'keyset not defined'. Also get this
message if I try to add an existing key file to the container. Is this an
bug in the sn tool or the CSP? Or did the book neglect to tell the whole
story? Maybe this only works on server's like Win 2003 Server.

I've had no trouble to date using sn to create keyfiles and use them to
strong name assemblies. Just wanted to try out using the crypto container
thingy, SIGH!!
