How do I configure certificate as part of request?

Question

I need to test a WCF service which has certificate authentication enabled. I'm able to authenticate by writing C# test client which loads up certificate from my system certificate store.

Since the certificate is already trusted and stored in my Windows machine cert store locally, how can I point SoapUI to use that cert like the way C# code read from the store?

Any pointers would be of great help. I have also tried a number of online forums and their solutions but none of them ever worked. I'm on SoapUI 5.3.0.

If SoapUI can't read certs from the local machine store, I have PFX file provide by my Admin, which I used to install cert on my local store. Can I use PFX to authenticate alternatively?

I have already tried those steps in http://geekswithblogs.net/gvdmaaden/archive/2011/02/24/how-to-configure-soapui-with-client-certificate-authentication.aspx

but it didn't seem to be considering my cert in the Preferences. I have also tried giving my cert path in the SSL Keystore property of the Request but it also didn't work.

I'm getting the below generic error from the service which indicates my request didn't contain the cert with it.

The message could not be processed. This is most likely because the action 'http://tempuri.org/.......' is incorrect or because the message contains an invalid or expired security context token or because there is a mismatch between bindings. The security context token would be invalid if the service aborted the channel due to inactivity. To prevent the service from aborting idle sessions prematurely increase the Receive timeout on the service endpoint's binding.
