Ssl certificate on Mono

I have been using dotConnect MySql for quite a while and it has worked fabulously on Win32/.NET, however I have run into a bit of an issue on Linux/Mono. I have managed to get the licensing issues resolved with the code and am now stuck at runtime, on Win32/.NET when using an Ssl connection the software does not look for a client certificate but instead simply operates on its own without one. On Mono in Linux the software throws an exception "SSL conenction error (2026): The certificate message is invalid."
Please help!

It has been nearly a month... This is preventing us from being able to update an important piece of software to work under Linux. What is the status of this?

The problem is that the SSL support in dotConnect for MySQL highly relies on CryptoAPI, which may be unavailable in some Linux systems. Provided that the particular system under which your Mono application is run includes CryptoAPI, the SSL connections should work properly.

The machine that this code is running on is a stock install of Ubuntu 10.04 Server x64. Mono version is 2.6 r160582.
What was this tested against by DevArt?

The problem is not caused by the distribution version itself, but rather by the packages (not) installed in it. Please check that the CryptoAPI package is installed in your system. Linux CryptoAPI is available, e.g., at
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/crypto/
Please tell us if the problem persists after installing this package.
