NSURLConnection Certificate

Question

If I have installed a .pfx certificate in a mobileconfig, should I do something when the server ask for it, or does the system take care automatically of it?

Thanks

I'm not a big expert on this topic, but: pfx certificates are supported for mobileconfig, as explained here, but I believe you have to implement a delegate of NSURLConnection in order to have the handshake done, i.e.

- (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge:(NSURLAuthenticationChallenge *)challenge

as already explained on this post.

Then you could take example from this post to find some useful code snippet.

Thanks for your answer, but my question is if there is something I have to do when the pfx is in a mobileconfig, outside the app. – user1447414 Jul 30 '12 at 14:43
In the third link there is actually a guy with the same issue: "I'm trying to connect to a server using a .pfx that is stored in a .mobileconfig file on my iPhone." Isn't that the same situation as yours? – Nicola Miotto Jul 30 '12 at 17:13

You should declare the NSURLConnection delegates: connection:didReceiveData, connection:didReceiveResponse and connectionDidFinishLoading.
