Where can I find some good WS-Security introductions and tutorials?

Can anyone point me to some decent introductions to WS-Security?

I'm looking for tutorials or something that provide a fairly gentle introduction to the subject, though I don't mind if it assumes basic knowledge of web services and SOAP. Most of the stuff I've seen so far is very technical and you need a lot of complex, detailed background knowledge to understand it properly.

We have to implement a web service in PHP and one or more clients in .NET, so resources covering both would be much appreciated.

Check Kirk Evans' blog as it deals with the .NET Framework 2.0+ instead of the old .NET Framework 1.0 linked by Sven.

The implementation on Evans' blog is backwards compatible with clients running .NET Frameowrk 1.0.

You can find some good article on WS-Security and Apache Rampart - the open source WS-Security implementation - in WSO2 Online Library.

WSO2 WSF/PHP is a PHP Web services extension that has support for WS-Security and also interops with .NET Web services/clients seamlessly.

I had to give myself a crash course in WS-Security a few months back, here are a few links that I found helpful:

I think the best introduction to the (any) subject are some good examples.
This article at codeProject gives a fairly easy to follow guide trough web service security for a .NET application.
