Vista - WCF Security

Hello, everybody

I am a WCF beginner and trying to learn to build an application wich
contains a
service host and a service client using some security features of WCF.

I followed the steps as telled by windows SDK. I created a service host, and
following is the app.config,

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<appSettings>
<!-- use appSetting to configure base address provided by host -->
<add key="baseAddress" value="https://localhost:8000/Library/service" />
</appSettings>

<system.serviceModel>
<services>
<service
name="WinCF.Library" behaviorConfiguration="LibraryServiceBehavior">
<!-- use base address provided by host -->
<endpoint address=""
binding="wsHttpBinding"
bindingConfiguration="UsernameWithTransport"
contract="WinCF.ILibrary" />
</service>
</services>

<bindings>
<wsHttpBinding>
<binding name="UsernameWithTransport">
<security mode="Transport">
<transport clientCredentialType="None"/>
</security>
</binding>
</wsHttpBinding>
</bindings>

<!--For debugging purposes set the returnUnknownExceptionsAsFaults
attribute to true-->
<behaviors>
<behavior
name="LibraryServiceBehavior"
returnUnknownExceptionsAsFaults="False" >
</behavior>
</behaviors>
</system.serviceModel>
</configuration>
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Then I created a client, in order to have Visual Studio 2005 create a proxy
for me,
I used [Add Service Reference] and I input
https://localhost:8000/Library/service
in the [Service URI] textbox,
then an error [The service reference code generation failed. Please look in
the output window for details] occurred.

I am not familiar with network programming, can anyone tell me how to resolve
this error?

Thanks a lot.
