My client provided a certificate that i need to validate with the server certificate. I found a method "+ (BOOL)allowsAnyHTTPSCertificateForHost:(NSString*)host;" for NSURLRequest to ignore ssl certificate errors. But i can't find any method to validate My certificate .
I don't think you can do this with NSURLConnection, unfortunately.
If you drop down to CFStream, there are SSL-related properties you can set. The one you want, I think, is kCFStreamSSLCertificates. The value should be an array of SecIdentityRef. (You probably just need one item.)
