How do I use the certicate issued by CA in my TCP/IP channels?

We have a project that requires secure communications between server and client. The server is Windows 2003 and client is XP Embedded (almost identical to XP). We already implemented AES encryption to our TCP/IP channels. Nowwe need to implement an authentication on the top of it.

I have set up a CA onthe server.A PKI certificate is installed on both server andclient. I want to use the certificate installedto establish the authenticationbeforemessage exchage. How do I do it?

Use SSL/TLS (with SslStream)? As we know it uses Certificates for authentication. You get the authentication and encryption through it, so you'd not want to do your manual encryption too I suppose.
