WCF service with certificate authentication: "The caller was not authenticated by the service"

I'm trying to setup a WCF service with certificate-based authentication, following this guide: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-au/library/ff648360.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
I've followed all the steps (I think), which in summary are:
1) Generated a self-signed CA certificate and installed it as a machine-level trusted CA:
2) Generated a certificate for the service (signed by the CA certificate, CN=QvxServiceCert) and installed it at machine-level:
3) configured the WCF service endpoint behavior to use the certificate. My service configuration looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<startup>
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.6.1" />
</startup>
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<wsHttpBinding>
<binding name="wsHttpEndpointBinding">
<security>
<message clientCredentialType="Certificate" />
</security>
</binding>
</wsHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="QvxServiceBehavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" httpsGetEnabled="true" />
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />
<serviceCredentials>
<serviceCertificate findValue="CN=QvxServiceCert" />
</serviceCredentials>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<services>
<service name="esqQvxScheduler.Service.QvxSchedulerAPI" behaviorConfiguration="QvxServiceBehavior">
<endpoint address="" binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="wsHttpEndpointBinding"
name="wsHttpEndpoint" bindingName="" contract="esqQvxScheduler.Service.IQvxSchedulerAPI" />
<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
<host>
<baseAddresses>
<add baseAddress="http://localhost:8733/QvxSchedulerAPI/" />
</baseAddresses>
</host>
</service>
</services>
</system.serviceModel>
</configuration>
4) Generated a certificate for the client (again, signed by the CA certificate, this one has CN=QvxClientCert) and installed at user-level:
5) configured the WCF client behavior to use it for authentication. This is my client config:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<startup>
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.5.2" />
</startup>
<system.serviceModel>
<behaviors>
<endpointBehaviors>
<behavior name="qvxClientBehavior">
<clientCredentials>
<clientCertificate findValue="CN=QvxClientCert" />
</clientCredentials>
</behavior>
</endpointBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<bindings>
<wsHttpBinding>
<binding name="wsHttpEndpoint">
<security>
<message clientCredentialType="Certificate" />
</security>
</binding>
</wsHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint address="http://localhost:8733/QvxSchedulerAPI/" binding="wsHttpBinding" behaviorConfiguration="qvxClientBehavior"
bindingConfiguration="wsHttpEndpoint" contract="QvxSchedulerAPI.IQvxSchedulerAPI"
name="wsHttpEndpoint">
<identity>
<certificate encodedValue="[A LONG AUTOGENERATED STRING THE MEANING OF WHICH I HAVE NO IDEA]" />
</identity>
</endpoint>
</client>
</system.serviceModel>
</configuration>
6) Gave the user that runs the client access to the certificate, by issuing the following on the command line: cacls "C:\Users\MyUsername\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\S-1-5-21-742627442-1779984360-2302642487-1000" /E /G "MyUser-PC\MyUsername":R
This was all done following the guide, without any issue that I could see. Everything seems ok... but when I try to invoke the service from my client, all I get this frustratingly vague and unhelpful exception:
Unhandled Exception: System.ServiceModel.Security.SecurityNegotiationException: The caller was not authenticated by the service. ---> System.ServiceModel.FaultException: The request for security token could not be satisfied because authentication failed.

Well, after a lot of trial and error, turns out that you either have to have a CRL installed for your CA or you have to specify explicitly that you don't want a revocation check, by adding this to your behavior's ClientCredentials tag:
<serviceCertificate>
<authentication revocationMode="NoCheck"/>
</serviceCertificate>
and vice-versa for the service side:
<clientCertificate>
<authentication certificateValidationMode="ChainTrust" revocationMode="NoCheck"/>
</clientCertificate>
Also, you need to remove the autogenerated certificate tag in the client and replace it with an instruction to look up the certificate:
<identity>
<certificateReference findValue="CN=QvxServiceCert" x509FindType="FindBySubjectName" storeLocation="LocalMachine" storeName="My" />
</identity>

The HTTP request was forbidden with client authentication scheme 'Anonymous' when access through a webhosted service

I am getting the following issue when i m trying to access the wcf service through WcfTestClient. The service is hosted on an Hostgator site
The HTTP request was forbidden with client authentication scheme 'Anonymous'.

I have tried using the answers that were already in stackoverflow but all of them are related to the Certificate, which i have not applied

There Was No Endpoint Listening at http // That Could Accept The Message in WCF

I am trying to develop a webservice. In my application I need to connect to my webservice without any referencing, so I use this code:
static void Main(string[] args)
{
BasicHttpBinding binding = new BasicHttpBinding();
EndpointAddress address = new EndpointAddress("http://confdemo.spadsystem.com/WcfServiceLibrary1.Service1.svc");
ChannelFactory<IService1> factory = new ChannelFactory<IService1>(binding, address);
IService1 channel = factory.CreateChannel();
Console.WriteLine(channel.GetCategoryName(1));
Console.ReadLine();
}
But in this line channel.GetCategoryName(1) I get this error :

You said it worked when you added references. So my guess is that you have an issue in your endpoint.
According to your code you are expecting the endpoint to be http://confdemo.spadsystem.com/WcfServiceLibrary1.Service1.svc. But your actual endpoint is http://confdemo.spadsystem.com/WcfServiceLibrary1.Service1.svc/confdemo.spadsystem.com/WcfServiceLibrary1.Service1.svc.
In your wsdl it shows the url as
<wsdl:service name="Service1">
<wsdl:port name="BasicHttpBinding_IService1" binding="tns:BasicHttpBinding_IService1">
<soap:address location="http://confdemo.spadsystem.com
/WcfServiceLibrary1.Service1.svc/confdemo.spadsystem.com/WcfServiceLibrary1.Service1.svc"/>
</wsdl:port>
</wsdl:service>
I think this part this your web.config is not correct.
<endpoint address="confdemo.spadsystem.com/WcfServiceLibrary1.Service1.svc" binding="basicHttpBinding" contract="WcfServiceLibrary1.IService1">

How to dynamically call a net.tcp Web Service

I am trying to call a WCF from my C# desktop app but i get an error. This is my code:
//Client Code
System.ServiceModel.EndpointAddress addressSync = new System.ServiceModel.EndpointAddress("net.tcp://an ip address/Sync2.svc");
Shared.FactorySync = new System.ServiceModel.ChannelFactory<LiteEdition.wsSyncFastest.ISync2Channel>("NetTcpBinding_ISync2", addressSync);
Shared.UpLoadSync = Shared.FactorySync.CreateChannel();
[QUESTION. If I dynamically create a client call to a WCF can I assume i do NOT need to include anything in th app.config file about the bindings?]
//error message on this line:
Shared.UpLoadSync.UploadMotionDynamic2(new byte[1]{0}, 0, 0);
//IS:

channel.Open();
But get this error 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'
on the .Open() method.
Also, the 'WindowsFormsApplication2.ws.ISync2Channel' is defined because I had already added a reference to the Service. If I had not what would I have
used instead?

This all works when I use http binding though...
The port 780 is open on my server.
the Net.Tcp.Listener Adaptor is running
Enabled Protocols in IIS has net.tcp
Still no joy

It looks like your using the wrong constructor for your requirements.
When using the ChannelFactory(String, EndpointAddress) constructor, the first parameter stands for the name of your endpoint configuration (in your config file).
Using the ChannelFactory(Binding, EndpointAddress) constructor will fulfill your requirement of passing the configuration programmatically.
Use this constructor when you want to pass the binding and address information programmatically rather than using an application configuration file.

You can use the ChannelFactory class to call the wcf service, in this case you dont need to have endpoints and bindings in configuration file. Everything(endpoints, behaviors) you can create in the c# something like below code
var channelFactory = new ChannelFactory<IService>(new BasicHttpBinding(), "http://myurl:8080/ServiceFirst");
IService client = channelFactory.CreateChannel();
